My Story

I am happy to update you my personal information. My name is Haide Del Rosario Equila De Leon, and I am 9 years old. I am in third grade this year, and I am attending school once a week; I also receive study guides through WhatsApp. I personally deliver my homework to the teacher. It has been difficult for me to study in this way because I am not learning as I should do. My father is who covers the home expenses and he works as a merchant. My mother is a housewife and she is always attentive to the family. We have been economically affected by this pandemic because the groceries’ prices have increased; fortunately, we have received support from Living Water and my school.

God has been wonderful with us and has kept us safe from the virus. We are in good health. We are members of the Catholic Church, but we are not attending it due to the virus. Living Water provided us grocery bags and we enjoyed them since my parents cannot buy milk because it is expensive; I really enjoyed it. I thank from the bottom of my heart to the Ministry for all the support received. Lastly, I want to tell you that my mother helped me to give this information by phone to a LW secretary. The staff did not meet us personally because they are avoiding physical contact as much as possible since they want to protect us from the current virus. I say goodbye to you for now.

Sincerely yours

Haide Del Rosario Equila De Leon
