My Story

I send you my best wishes and I want to share with you some news about my family and myself through this. This is Abner Elias Jacinto Guaran and I want to tell you that I studied the 6^th grade and finished the primary school last year, but unfortunately, I am not studying this year due to a lack of financial resources. Nowadays, I help my father in the farming job because he is working as a farmer in our village. His name is Justo Elias. Thankfully, my mother also is working in a plant nursery and she contributes to our home expenses. Her name is Sara Maria and both of them are in good health. They are doing their best for the family, but the money is not enough to cover every financial need. Unfortunately, we are not attending any church due to a lack of time, but LW team shared the gospel with my mother during the visit. She was encouraged to seek a church and she is thankful for every benefit that I receive from LW Adopt-A-Child in the Feeding Center. She helped to collect this information.

I want to tell you that I like to celebrate my birthday along with my family and I remember last year when they gave me a nice surprise to celebrate my birthday. I was very happy and I felt the presence of God in my heart. For me, Jesus is my friend. I identify with my mother because she comprehends me and we have a good emotional connection. I talk about many interesting topics with my best friend. His name is Cristopher and we met three years ago. As you know, I am a healthy boy in spite of some walking troubles. I am a thirteen year old teenager and it was a pleasure to tell you my little story. Thank you for your attention. Blessings to you!

Huge hugs,

Abner Elias Jacinto Guaran
