My Story

Dear Padrinos, thank you for loving me because you are a blessing in my life. My name is Jose Manuel Tiul Pangan. Let me tell you that in 2023 I was sick with dengue fever and I was hospitalized for fifteen days. I thought that I might die, but God healed me. He always watched over me and now I am thankful with him. I felt his presence in my heart in every moment. I know Jesus is my healer and also my savior. Nowadays, I am attending the Holy Spirit Community Christian Church and I like to participate in the Youth Group. LW team shared the gospel with my mother and encouraged her to seek a church and she was crying during the visit. She asked for prayers. I trust in my mom and I admire her. My best friend is Daniel and we met four years ago. We like to play football, talk and eat some snacks together. I am in 6^th grade at school, and thank God, I am in good health. I am twelve years old.

My stepfather`s name is Diego Hernandez. He continues working in the drugstore. My mother`s name is Gabriela Tiul Pangan and she was unemployed again, but thank God, she started to work some days ago. Currently, she earns a living by doing the cleaning in a shopping center. She is glad because now she can help my stepfather with home expenses because sometimes we did not have anything to eat.

We are a needy family, but I know God provides for our family needs. My stepfather and mother are enjoying good health and they try to cover every financial need. This is all for now, but I send you all my love from the bottom of my heart. I love you so much!

Warm wishes,

Jose Manuel Tiul Pangan
