My Story

I am very happy to update my personal information. My name is Balaam Cornelio Alan Garcia De La Cruz, and I am 16 years old. I attending school because my mother no longer had the resources to support me with it. I only finished my primary school. Currently, I work as a farmer and day laborer to help my mother to cover the home expenses. My mother is a housewife and she earns a living by raising and selling domestic animals. This pandemic has affected our economy because the groceries’ prices increased; we have to reduce our expenses to survive this hard situation. God has been faithful with us and has kept us safe from the virus. We are all in good health.

We received grocery bags from Living Water and they were a great blessing for my family and me. I am very grateful to the Ministry for all the support I have received in these difficult moments. I pray God blesses all those people who help Living Water. We are members of Full Gospel Church and we attend it on Tuesday and Friday; every service lasts two hours. Lastly, I want to tell you that my mother helped me to give this information by phone to a LW collaborator. The staff did not meet us personally because they are avoiding physical contact as much as possible since they want to protect us from the current virus. I send you many hugs hoping to have news from you.

With much love

Balaam Cornelio Alan Garcia De La Cruz
