My Story

Hello! My name is Juan Luis, and this is my update information. I am in good health, and I am 10 years old. I am attending school, and I am in 4^th grade this year. After classes, I help my grandma with the household chores. I love wearing undershirts and shorts, so I prefer summer time. I have been attending the feeding program for about 4 years, and I like the Bible classes because we take time to pray to God. I tell you that my grandma was one of the first children who attended the feeding program, and she remembers with much love the Christmas gift that she received there. This beautiful experience was what motivated my family to register me in it.

My parents are in the United States, but they do not live together there because they got separated about 2 years ago. I do not have much communication with my dad, and he only sometimes sends money for my needs; I do not have much information about him. On the other hand, my mother is working as a janitor in a company, and she faithfully sends me money every month; she calls me every 2 days. My grandma takes care of me very well, and she raises hens to cover our needs. We are sharing our house with a cousin, and he also contributes with the home bills.   

We are not attending a church, so LW Evangelism team encouraged us to seek a church and serve God. I hope we can do it someday. My grandma helped me with this letter for you, and she took advantage of this to ask for your prayers for my mom since she is abroad. I thank you so much for taking time to read my letter.

Kisses and hugs
