My Story

It is a beautiful day to say hello to you and I trust in God you are doing well! My name is Jose De La Cruz Garcia. I am now 11 years old. I am in 4^th grade and I receive my classes on the morning shift. I try to help my mother with some work at home and then, I enjoy playing with my toy cars. My mother is a housewife and raises hens to sell and get some income. We cultivate corn and beans for our livelihood. My stepfather works as a farmer and goes to pick coffee beans on the coast to support us economically. My biological father abandoned us many years ago. Thankfully, we are fine at home.

I am very thankful for all the support I receive through Living Water; the food and medical care are so helpful for me. Fried chicken is my favorite meal from the program. I like to participate in the Christmas activity because I enjoy the games and the gift I receive at the end. My family and I do not attend any church; this time am evangelism teacher shared the gospel with us. We appreciate the advice and are going to think about attending a church. I would like you to keep my family in your prayers for our well-being and provision. Finally, let me tell you that my mother gave this information to the LW team to update you about me. I hope you like my letter and I hope to hear news from you very soon. Every blessing for you!

Bunch of hugs,

Jose De La Cruz Garcia
