My Story

Hello dearest sponsor!  It is a pleasure to greet you hoping that you are in good health.   Thanks to God, my family and I are well.  At home, I help my mother with the chores, and I also take our sheep out to pasture in the afternoons.  I was in 2^nd grade this year (2019).  I like to go to school and to learn the lessons that the teacher is giving me.  I want to continue studying and become a professional person one day.  I only live with my mother because my father abandoned us.  My mother is struggling to provide for us.  She works in the capital in a tortillas business.  She works for a year and then rests for a month.  While she is working, I stay under the care of my grandparents.  My mother calls me and sends money for my needs.  I go with my grandparents to church, and I like to go to the meetings so I can worship God.  My grandfather is the pastor of the church.  He encourages me to put my confidence in God.  We have a Day of Thanksgiving celebration each year in the church and we invite singers and music groups to our church.  The food that they prepare on this day is traditional chicken soup.  It is a very joyful celebration.  Thank you for all your support.  See you soon!

Blessings and much love,

Deisy Pu Luis
