My Story

My dear Padrino, I feel the love of God in my life because you are in my mind and heart, and taking advantage of this, I want to tell you about my family and myself through this. Jesus is my savior and my healer and we continue persevering and growing in our faith in Prince of Peace Christian Church. We like to celebrate the thanks giving service for our first crops.  LW team encouraged my mother to continue seeking God during the visit and she is assured of her salvation. She helped collect this information for you. Her name is Dominga Quino and she is dedicating her time to look after us. She also continues raising and selling hens to earn some money to help my father with the home income. I admire her and we spend a lot of time together. She teaches me about housework.  As you know, my father lives and works in the United States. At the moment, he is working as a gardener. He sends us money monthly to cover our family needs and he always calls us. His name is Nicolas. Thanks to our Lord, my parents, siblings and I are in good health.

This is Santa Odilia Garcia Quino and let me tell you that currently, I am working as a maid and I support my parents a little with the money I earn. Additionally, I help my mother with household duties. I am nineteen years old and my best friend`s name is Estrellita Noemy. We like to sing together and we have been friends since we were younger. I lived my saddest experience when my father traveled to the United States, but God helped me and comforted my life with his presence and his peace. Well, thank you for your attention and also for your support and love for my family and me. You are a special instrument in God hands!

In Jesu`s love,

Santa Odilia Garcia Quino
