Hello dear sponsors! It is a great blessing for me to be part of the Living Water program and receive your support. This is Marvin Leonardo De La Cruz Garcia. I am already 13 years old. My family and I attend a Christian Church. We like to participate in the Thanksgiving Day service; it is the activity that we enjoy the most. My older sister received encouraging words from a LW member to continue attending church; we appreciate this so much. Jesus is my savior and loves me. My dad abandoned us and we know nothing about him. My mom does day laborer work to provide for our family. She usually goes to work on the coast for three months to get more income and supply our needs.  

I am in third grade this year. I have a friend named Jose De La Cruz. We have been friends for 5 years. We enjoy playing toy cars and football. I love my mom because she is passionate about caring for our family. Allow me to share my happiness with you. I have a new nephew, and his name is Rudy. Thanks to God, he is a healthy boy. My mom, siblings and I are in good health too. I would like you to know that my older sister, Josefina shared this information with an evangelism teacher to update you about me. I appreciate you taking the time to read my letter. I pray to God for bountiful blessings over you! 

Kisses and hugs, 

Marvin Leonardo De La Cruz Garcia
