guys i have had the pleasure of knowing them for their whole life since they were well they've been friends since they were about four or five um i know both of their grandmas their grandmas worked together um as retired teachers so well they're retired teachers now but i've known both families for a very very long time and we are very close so it feels good to help these guys out it's great

and their circumstances are very similar but their circumstances could have led to them possibly going in that direction they had parents that had some struggles but instead they got together and they have overcome so many odds oh yes they have all right we're gonna grant them a wish this morning uh will you guys hang out there and then lydia is gonna make a phone call here and we're gonna see i don't know who do you think will pick up the phone uh and i'm not sure which

boy will um but i gave the number so called so one of them will definitely answer it might be Steven. I think I gave his number.

Okay, so let's see what happens here. They live together, and let's grant a Christmas wish this morning here on the Mojo in the Morning Show. Hello, Steven. Hello. Is it Steven or Michael? Both of us. Both, Steven and Michael. Hi, guys. It's Mojo from Mojo in the Morning Show. Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning, guys. Hey, guys, I hate to call this early in the morning because I know you guys are very, very busy. But our Mojo in the Morning show got a letter from one of your biggest supporters ever for our Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish program that told us that you guys are some amazing guys, that you have done some cool stuff in your lives. Can I have them read the letter to you?

Yeah, go for it.

Go ahead, Don.

Dear Mojo in the morning, I want to tell you about two exceptional young men. This is not just a story about two young men in need. It's not just a story about survival. This is a story about a beautiful, lifelong friendship, a true friendship, and best friends. My name is Donna, and I would like to introduce you to Stephen Phillips and Michael Vest. Stephen grew up without his dad being there. Michael's dad sadly passed away. The boys were both ultimately raised by their grandmothers. The boys grew up without much and still don't have much to this day. They both graduated from high school. Michael went on to enroll in college while Stephen found his job. Stephen was even faced with homelessness. They have endured countless odds stacked against them and so much heartache. but they continue to push forward, work hard, and show kindness to others. These young men deserve a wonderful Christmas. They wouldn't have made it if they didn't have each other to lean on and get through the hard times together. Mojo, please help me make this holiday a memorable one for them. Sincerely, Donna.

Wow.

This is a beautiful story.

Yeah. Yes. Yes. that you got

thank goodness you had each other to get through everything that was thrown at you it's a perfect example of chosen family you chose each other
