My Story

It is a beautiful day to greet you affectionately by this letter; God bless you! For now, we are not attending any church. So, we appreciate the encouraging words that LW staff gave us; they say God is our father and loves us. My mother´s name is Claudia Marisol Morales, and she is 36 years old. She does the household work and watchers over my siblings and me. My father´s name is Juan Carlos Gutierrez Morales, and he is 46 years old. He continues working as a messenger, and he is the one who covers the home expenses. We have parakeets as pets. We are fine, but I want to ask for your prayers for my mother´s health. She suffers from high blood pressure and is already taking medicines for it.

This is Josefp Antonio Gutierrez Morales, and I am a 9-year-old boy. I am a second-grade student; my learning has improved since I receive classes at school. My father is the one who covers the school supplies, and it is hard for him to cover them because of a lack of resources. When I grow up, I would like to be a doctor to help people. The language I would like to learn is English; it is so interesting. The climate I prefer is summer because I enjoy playing water. The drink I love is mango juice because it is delicious. Playing football is so much fun; it is my favorite sport. My parents try to celebrate my birthday by inviting me to go out and eat hamburgers; if they have resources, we go. I am so blessed to be part of Living Water because I receive food and medical attention in the clinics when I am in need. As a family, our needs are a bed and groceries. Well, this is all for now. Many and rich blessings!

With much love,

Josefp Antonio Gutierrez Morales
