This is Juan Antony Ruiz Lopez, and I am lucky to share my information with you through this letter. I am 11 years old and I am doing my best at school as a fourth grader. I study on the morning shift. By the grace of God, my whole family and I are in good health. My parents work hard to move forward and provide me with food and my education. My father is a farmer and my mom keeps busy with the housework. We raise hens, sheep, and pigs to sell. Please pray for our family business so we can survive. In advance, thank you so much!  

My family and I have been members of a Christian Church for two years. A teacher of the LW evangelism team congratulated my mom because she accepted Jesus as her Savior when we started to go to church. He also encouraged her to continue persevering. Besides spiritual support, let me tell you that LW-Adopt A Child has blessed me with food. My favorite food at the feeding program is fried chicken. I enjoy celebrating Christmas at the project because I receive a gift. Last year, I enjoyed it with my family so much! I say goodbye to you now, but I hope you can tell me about your life someday. See you later! 

Sincerely yours,  

Juan Antony Ruiz Lopez
