I always had a hard time balancing my love of anime and my faith as they seemed to conflict so much. I went to Vic's service at Katsucon 2011 and he told all of us in the room that it was okay to be a Christian and love anime in such a way that I started to cry. Finally I was told that these two things didn't have to be kept apart! It should be noted that at the time I was attending a very conservative church. When I met Vic face to face after the service, he embraced me in a wonderfully welcoming hug as I thanked him for the words that touched my heart so much.
A few years later, after I had married, my stepson, who is autistic, was looking forward to meeting Vic but we were unable to wait in a long line due to his autism and my three month old needing what babies need. After messaging Vic, he kindly sent a package to my stepson with an autographed photo among a few other items. I recorded his reaction when he opened the package and still love the memory of how is eyes lit up.
