Hello, my name is Jose Israel Elias Morente Gomez. It is a pleasure to greet you and your loved ones. I am 7 years old, and I am in the first grade. One the weekends, I like to play ball. Thank God, my family and I are all in good health. My father’s name is Genaro Morente Gomez. He works in the capital loading vegetables at the terminal. He comes home every 4 months, but always sends support to our family. My mother’s name is Maria Gomez Grave. She takes care of our home. She also raises chickens to sell. I enjoy going to the feeding program each week and eating a delicious meal. My favorite meal that they serve at the feeding program is the fried chicken.
I also enjoy the entire end of year Christmas celebration that we have at the feeding program. Living Water has greatly blessed my family by food they provide me each week. At home, we grow corn, but it is not enough to sustain us the whole year, so we buy corn. As a family, we attend the Prince of Peace church. My mother is secure in her salvation. I am thankful that the Living Water evangelism team encourages us to continue to seek God. I pray that you are doing well, and I hope that you will pray for the health of my family. Thank you for taking the time to read about me today. I send you many hugs and blessings.
With much love,
Jose Israel Elias Morente Gomez
