My Story

I greet you in Jesus’ name hoping you are receiving many blessings together with your loved ones. I am Anderson Bladimir. I live with my family in a colony of Guatemala City called “El Esfuerzo”. Life and the economy are not easy here, but my parents do their best to cover our needs. We are frequently in need of groceries and shoes. My father’s name is Nelson, and he is 42 years old. He earns a living by selling chips and running errands for others. My mother’s name is Maria, and she is 47 years old. She works as a maid. My dad is healthy, but my mother suffers from diabetes and is under medical treatment to control it; please keep her in your prayers. We are now members of Calvary Church, and we attend service on Tuesday and Sunday. I have a dog as a pet.

Being part of Living Water has been a great blessing for my family and me. I am fine and healthy, and I am 17 years old. I love eating cake with my family for my birthday. I would like to become a soccer player and learn another language like English. I repeated 8^th grade this year, and I prefer to attend school in person because it is easier to learn. It was difficult for my parents to support me with my studies since they have other expenses. I really like playing soccer, and one of my favorite beverages is Coca-Cola. I enjoy summertime because I play with water since the weather is hot. Well, I end my letter wishing you the best and hoping to have news from you soon.

All the best
