My Story

My name is Angel Danilo Aroldo Zelada Apen and I am so happy to share a little bit about my life with you. Luckily, I am a healthy 8-year-old boy. What about you? I am in first grade and I like the cold weather because it is perfect to bundle up and go to sleep. I have attended the feeding program for about three years, which has been a great blessing not only to me, but for my whole family too. My mother is a single parent and works hard to move forward with our family. She works as a domestic employee and felt motivated to take my brother and me to the feeding program because she heard that this organization provides meaningful support and spiritual guidance.

Brother Franklin (a member of the evangelism team) shared the gospel and prayed for my whole family and me as an encouragement to look for God, since we do not attend a church at the moment. May God continue blessing LW-Adopt A Child and all those who support their work financially! I want you to know that I usually help my mother to put away the shoes and sweep because I know she comes home tired from work. I do not know anything about my biological father since he abandoned our family. It is time to say goodbye, but I want you to know that my mother helped me to compose this letter for you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read it!

Sincerely yours,

Angel Danilo Aroldo Zelada Apen
