The Princess of Choklit Park (Victoria Martin part 1)

March 15, 2026 by Kevin Rogers in Victoria Martin, Windsor Ontario, Vancouver, Urban Ministry, Substance Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Sex Trafficking, New Song Church, Kevin Rogers, Human Trafficking, At Risk Youth

Victoria Martin grew up in Downtown Vancouver near the infamous Choklit Park. From her mother’s midnight move from Montreal to British Columbia, young Victoria left behind a father involved in organized crime. But she was no safer with her mother who let men do things to her as a young girl.

In this part of the interview we hear her story of being a street kid who thought she had the world by the tail.

The seeds of her faith started when she visited an ornate church and met the priest. Thinking that he was Santa Claus, she poured out her heart telling him everything that she wanted and dreamed about.

Victoria’s life journey would be far from picturesque, but the presence of God brought her to her new day.
