My Story

Hello everybody! It is a big pleasure to greet you. I hope your family and you are enjoying our God’s blessings. My name is Sandra Lucrecia de la Cruz Garcia and I am 10 years old. I am enrolled in second grade again. I receive classes online by WhatsApp. I also attend school and I bring my homework once a week. This method has been very difficult to me because I have to clear up my doubts by myself. My mother struggles a lot to cover our needs since she works doing the chores for other people. Thankfully, one of my older brothers works in a furniture store to help her a little financially. The current world situation has affected our learning and economy because food has gone up in price. However, we know that God has always been with us.

He has kept us safe from the virus and we are healthy. Thankfully, God has blessed us through Living Water because we received grocery bags. Everything that we have received from the ministry has been a great support for us. So, my family and I are so grateful to the feeding program and you for loving us a lot. Currently, we are members of the Catholic Church but we only occasionally attend it due to the existing disease. Finally, let me tell you that my sister Maria Elena De La Cruz, assisted a member of the AAC-team to update this information about me by phone since the staff want to protect us from the current pandemic. I say goodbye to you for now, but I would like to hear about you soon.

Many kisses and hugs

Sandra Lucrecia de la Cruz Garcia
