It is a wonderful day to say hello to you hoping our Lord is taking care of you! This is Daniel Mendez Morente. I am 17 years old. I no longer study after I finished primary school. Now I work as a day laborer in my community. On weekends, I go to collect firewood in the nearby forest. My father does farm work to provide for our home needs. Meanwhile, my mother does the housework and raises hens. We grow corn for our livelihood. My father and I usually travel to the coast to pick coffee beans for two months at the end of the year to get more income. My family and I are in good health.
What I love at Christmas is that the staff prepares a special activity with carols and some games. Living Water is a great blessing in my life; I receive tasty meals and medicine when I get sick. The food I love the most is fried chicken. We are members of the Methodist Church, and I trust in Jesus as my Lord and savior. I want to ask for your prayers for my family and that we can continue staying well. This time a member of LW took time to collect this information and I shared happily. Well, this is all for now. Many and abundantly blessings over you!
Kind regards,
Daniel Mendez Morente
