My Story

I hope you are having a wonderful day alongside your family! My family and I do not attend church due to some problems in the past. This time LW staff shared the gospel with us and encouraged us to look for a church and seek God. By the grace of God, my family and I are quite well. My mother is Bacilia Ajqui Gutierrez, and she is 39 years old. She does the housework and raises some cows to sell and get income. My father is Lucas Suar Chingo, and he is 41 years old. He is employed as both a farmer and a day laborer in our village. We grow corn and mangoes for the family's consumption.

I am Braylin Orlando Suar Ajqui, and I am a 12-year-old boy. This year I was repeating third grade; my classes were at school, and it helped my learning. Nowadays, school supplies are very expensive, and it was hard for my parents to buy what I needed for school because of a lack of resources. When I grow up, I would like to become a merchant or a rancher. Let me tell you, the language that catches my attention is English, so I want to learn it. On my birthday, I enjoy eating cake, my family buys one to celebrate with me. I love drinking oatmeal, which is my favorite beverage. Playing football is so much fun; it is my favorite sport. I like firecrackers; I light some of them at Christmas time. I am so grateful to Living Water for blessing me with food, and medical care in the clinics; it is so helpful for me and a savings for my family. We are in need of groceries and corn. So long, take care. Every blessing for you!

Hugs with much love,

Braylin Orlando Suar Ajqui
