My Story

Hello! I greet you from the bottom of my heart and I wish you a brilliant and successful day.  I want to share a little about my family and me in this opportunity. My mother`s name is Rosa Quino Hernandez. She is 46 years old. At the moment, she continues doing chores at home and takes care of the family. Moreover, she raises hens, cows, and pigs at home. In this opportunity, I want to ask for your prayers for her because she continues suffering from a hernia in her stomach.  Fortunately, she visited the doctor, but she is not taking medicine due to a lack of money. My father´s name is Marcos Larios Cux.  He is 46 years old. He continues working as a mechanic in his own mechanic workshop in order to support us financially. As a humble family, our current needs are corn and groceries. We grow corn and black beans for our family`s consumption. Nowadays, we continue attending the Assembly of God Church once a week. We are grateful to the LW evangelism team for their encouraging words to my mother during the visit. So, she has Jesus in her heart. By the grace of God, the rest of my family is in good health.

I am Byron Jeremias Larios Quino. I am 13 years old. This year I am in 3^rd grade at school. I receive face-to-face classes every day, and I am learning a lot about homework with this study method. Currently, my father is making an effort to support my siblings and me at school in spite of the school fees being so expensive and that he does not have a stable job. Sometimes, it is very difficult to cover every expense. When I am older, I want to become a fireman. My native language is the Quiche Mayan dialect, so I would like to learn English; it is a very interesting language. My favorite celebration of the year is Christmas because our custom is to eat “tamales” (a typical dish). What I like to drink is “Incaparina” (a hot beverage made of soy and corn flour). For my birthday I like to eat a delicious cake. Among sports, I prefer soccer. My family is grateful to Living Water because I receive the meals, medical and dental attention, and spiritual support. I want to say thank you for the Christmas gift that you sent to me at the end of the year. May God bless you richly and protect you!

Lots of love,

Byron Jeremias Larios Quino
