My Story

Hello! I thank God for allowing me to be part of the feeding program from Living Water; I am so blessed. My name is Ivette Anali De Leon Lopez. My current age is 13 years old. We are members of the Salem Christian Church; we enjoy the praise time. Jesus is the one who will never abandon me. Thanks to God, we are in good health. My grandpa works as a driver. My aunt Daniela works as a maid and my aunt Sara takes care of me and my sister. My grandpa has my sister’s and my custody since our parents did not take responsibility for us. My mother recently came to live with us and she works as transit police officer in our village. My father abandoned us many years ago and we know nothing about him.

I am a seventh-grade student. Shirley has been my friend for two years and we like to play football. I get along very well with my aunt Daniela; she usually helps me with my homework. I asked in prayers to God for the opportunity to have my mother at my side, and now, she is with me; it is a new experience in my life. I know God is so good and will help us to create a good relationship. I would like you to know that my aunt, Sara, shared this information with an evangelism teacher to update you about me. I hope you find my letter interesting. Many and abundant blessings!

Warm hugs,

Ivette Anali De Leon Lopez
