My Story

Hello! My full name is Jose Miguel Ramirez Suret and I am so happy to share with you some of my latest news, which I hope you find engaging. I am 9 years old and I have attended the feeding program for about one year, which has been a great blessing for me. My mother enrolled me there because my older brother had received many blessings there like food. What I like the most is praying before having my meals and the loving care that the staff provides to many children like me. I want you to know that I am in second grade and I like the hot weather because it is perfect to play with water. I usually put away my shoes, wash my socks and sweep to help my mother with the chores since she keeps busy as a merchant together with my father.

My parents work hard to support our daily needs and cover the rent of the house where we live. My mother sells underclothes and fruits, while my father sells clothes. I want to use this opportunity to ask you to pray for my father since he suffers from diabetes. Thankfully, he is under treatment and has checkups to control this disease. We do not attend any church at the moment, but I hope we can do it soon. We appreciate that brother Juan Carlos (a member of the LW staff) recently shared the gospel with my mother and me as an encouragement to look for God. It is time to say goodbye, but I hope to hear from you soon.

With much love,

Jose Miguel Ramirez Suret
