Dear Sponsor. Warm regards from Jose Alejandro Lopez Juarez. I will turn 14 years old in November. I attend 7th grade at school. I have had the privilege of attending the feeding program for ten years. What I like best are the teachings about Jesus. I would like to ask for your prayers because I suffer from gastritis and acid reflux. I need to take medicine but my mother does not have enough money to buy it. I like to help my mother with chores at home, such as washing the dishes and sweeping. I enjoy playing outside in summer.
I am proud of my mother because she does her best to give me what I need. She makes a living by washing cars. Unfortunately, my father is not able to work due to his health condition. He suffers from kidney problems and diabetes. He receives treatment for both conditions; one of these is hemodialysis. My aunt Angelica Lopez supports my father with his medicine. I would like to open my heart to share with you a little about my parents. My mother and I live with my father's older children. My father also lives there; however, my parents do not have any sor t of relationship. We do not attend any church. Please pray for my mother and that God will continue providing for our family. She is grateful for the support that I have received through the feeding program. This is all for now until next time.
God bless you!
Jose Alejandro Lopez Juarez
