My Story

Hello! My name is Mauricio, and I am so glad to greet you through this letter, and especially to have the opportunity to share some updated information about my family and me with you. Thankfully, we are in good health. I am 8 years old, and I am a 2^nd grader this year. I like to play soccer with my friend Victor; we have been friends since kindergarten. My family and I are members of Assembly of God Church, and we like to participate in the vigils we have here. I love God because He is the creator of everything. He is someone to trust, and He answers our prayers.

 My father continues living and working in the United States; he earns a living as a gardener, and fortunately, we keep in touch with him and He sends us money every fifteen days to cover our needs. I want you to know that when my father left for the United States, this was the situation that has impacted my life the most because it was a sad experience. Even today I would like to have my father by my side. But we also could feel God’s presence in our lives because we trusted Him, and He took care of him on the way to the United States. My mother contributes with our home expenses; she is a weaver, she weaves blouses, typical skirts and other items. I love my parents because they both give me their love and are always attentive to me. Well, this is something about us and let me tell you that all this information was provided by my mother to the Evangelism team. I wish you many blessings in everything you do, and I hope to receive news from you soon.

With much love,

Mauricio Xan Tino
