My Story

Special regards from Nueva Esperanza! I am so happy to share my information with such a special person like you. My full name is Any Isabel Flores Hernandez and I want you to know that I have received a meaningful support at LW-Adopt A Child since my parents enrolled me. I have enjoyed delicious food at the feeding program for about one year. Before having my meals, I usually receive Bible lessons and I like them. My mother really appreciates the spiritual guidance and other benefits that this organization provides me. She prays that God continues blessing their social work. I want to use this opportunity to open my heart and tell you that my parents are separated. My father makes a living as a mason’s helper and provides my brother and me with child support. However, the income we receive is barely enough to cover some of our needs, and due to that, my mother works hard by doing the cleaning for others.

To earn a little bit of money, she also sells assorted products at the market. While she goes to work, my grandmother takes care of us. Please pray for us since we have passed through a hard economic situation lately. Most of our needs are food and shoes. About our spiritual life, I tell you that we do not attend any church at the moment. I am grateful to brother Juan Carlos (a member of the LW staff) because he recently shared the gospel with us as an encouragement to look for God. My grandmother took the opportunity to express him how grateful she is for taking care of our spiritual life. She is a Christian woman and always advises my family and me to look for God. She has assurance of her salvation in Jesus Christ because she accepted him as her father. This is all for now, but I want you to know that my grandmother helped me to compose this letter.

With much love,

Any Isabel Flores Hernandez
