My Story

Good morning! I feel so blessed to be part of the feeding program from Living Water and receive a big support. My name is Jakelin Abigail Montenegro Torres. I recently turned 16 years old. We are attending Catholic Church and we believe in God. It was so kind of the evangelism teacher to encourage us to continue seeking God. Jesus is God´s son and my faithful friend. My mom works hard at home. My dad does blacksmith work, and he provides for our home needs. My mom is taking medicines to control her blood pressure and she receives medical care in the health center.

I am so happy because I started my professional career to become a bilingual secretary; the career lasts three years. Since I started this school year, I have had more homework, but I have news friends. I thank God for allowing me to continue in high school, and I know that the wisdom I need to be successful comes only from him. Please pray for my family so that we can stay well. I continue with medical checkups at the public hospital because one of my kidneys does not work very well. I have been under medical treatment for many years, and I take medicines to stay stable. Sometimes, I take natural medicines. I love my mom; she is confident with me and we can talk about anything. I have a friend with whom I like to share meals and spend time together. We have been close since primary school. I would like you to know that my mom, Thelma, shared this information with an evangelism teacher to update you about me. Thank you for taking the time to read about me. Many and abundant blessings!

Kind regards,

Jakelin Abigail Montenegro Torres
