My Story

I am happy because you are present in my life and taking advantage of this, I want to tell you my little story. We believe in God and we are attending the same Christian church called Full Gospel. My older brother Bacilio Emiliano helped to collect this information and LW team encouraged him to continue seeking God. He is assured of his salvation in Jesus. Let me tell you that Jesus is my savior and healer. I had an accident last year. I was walking to the Feeding Center and someone ran over me and I hit my head. My mother took me to the hospital from Guatemala City due to the gravity, but God healed me and he was always with me during the recovery time. I am thankful with him and I felt his presence in my life and now I am in good health. I admire my mother because she stayed with me when I suffered the accident and she supported me all the time. Alfonso is the name of my best friend and we like to talk, and we usually do our homework from classes together. We have been friends for four years. I am a twelve-year-old boy. Unfortunately, I am repeating the 3rd grade for the third time, but I am doing my best because I want to pass this year. 

My name is Diego Armando Garcia Garcia and as you know, I live under my mother and stepfather`s care. My mother`s name is Ruperta and my stepfather`s name is Juan de la Cruz. He earns a living by working as a mason`s helper. In addition, he is a day laborer and he sustains the family financially. My mother is dedicating her time to the family and she does the housework. By the grace of God, they are in good health. Thank you for loving me. I love you in Jesus’ love!

Lots of love,

Diego Armando Garcia Garcia
