My Story

I greet you in Jesus’ name hoping everything is running well in your life. I am Karla, and I want to tell you a little about my family and me. I am a student, and I am in 7^th grade this year. I have had hearing problems since I was 6 years old. I need to use hearing aids in both ears to hear well, but due to our low resources, I only use one of them. It has been a difficult situation for me, but God has given me peace and has helped me to accept my condition. I have felt His presence in my life. For me, Jesus is God’s son. My mother is always supporting me in everything, so I identify a lot with her; she understands me. Five years ago, I met Paulina, and she has been my friend since that time. We like attending church together.

I live with my family in a place called "Lourdes I". My parents are responsible people, and they do their best to cover our needs. My father earns a living by working as a tailor while my mother works as a street vendor; she mainly sells natural medicine and jelly cakes. As a family, we attend an Evangelical church called Full Gospel. My parents are servants at church. My brother, Jermi, is part of the deacons' group, and I help in the Sunday school. We are all happy and grateful for every blessing we have received at the feeding program. We thank you for supporting Living Water. Well, this is what I wanted to share with you this time. I hope you find it interesting.

Cordially yours

Karla Daleshka Perez Godoy
