Hello! I send you warm greetings, and I am writing to tell you how I am. I am Candy Lucia, your sponsored child. I would like to ask for your prayers for my life since I have been having health issues. I suffered an asthma attack and I was under observation for one week at a public hospital. I now have to use medicine for it, and I am under a medical control at the hospital every week. I am doing my best at school, and I am in 5th grade this year; I study in the morning. I am 11 years old now. I like going out for a walk on weekends. One of my favorite dishes is Chow Mein. The dental attention and grocery bags are a great blessing for me, and I am very grateful for that. I am an active girl, and I would like to be part of LW collaborators’ team someday. I enjoy Christmas time at the program because we receive something delicious to eat and a present.  

I would like to ask for your prayers for my family and my parents’ work. My father is still recovering from the health issue that he suffered last year. He no longer takes medicine and only has a mild cough that will eventually go away. He lost a lot of weight and is recovering it little by little since he has not had good nutrition due to our low resources. In spite of his condition, he is now working as a mason to cover our basic needs, but it has been difficult for him since we have a lot of expenses like school supplies, uniforms, groceries and food. My mother works as a maid in order to help with the income. We have one dog as a pet. At the moment, we are not attending a church, but we recognize that God is for us. I tell you that my mom helped me to give all this information to an LW Evangelism teacher. I hope to hear from you soon.  

Many blessings 

Candy Lucia Hernandez Morales
