My Story

I am so glad to greet you in this opportunity. I am Jose Angel Santiago. I am 17 years old. I dropped out of school after I passed 6^th grade a couple years ago. For now, I work farming the land and I contribute with some money. My mother is a housewife. My father earns a living as a farmer to support our family.

Let me tell you that the covid-19 pandemic came to affect us in the economic area due to lack of work in the village. God has been so good with us and is helping us to overcome the difficulties. My family and I have been blessed with grocery bags as support from Living Water/ Adopt A Child. We felt so happy to receive this help because it came to bless my family. We are so thankful to you and the LW staff for the hard work they do to deliver the help for children. God bless you greatly in each area of your life. Thanks to God´s faithfulness, my family and I are healthy, and coronavirus has not affected us so far. We attend Catholic Church on Mondays. I want to let you know that a collaborator of LW called my father, Carlos Grave by phone to get this updated information since the feeding program is still closed due to the pandemic. I leave you for now. Every blessing for you!

Special regards,

Jose Angel Santiago Grave De La Cruz
