My Story

Hello! My name is Maximiliano Gomez Morente, and I am so happy to write this letter to you. How are you doing? I hope my update finds you doing well. Fortunately, I am a healthy 11-year-old boy. I am in fifth grade at school this year. I study in the morning and do homework in the afternoon. I like helping my father to work in the field on weekends. He makes a living as a farmer. So, we grow corn for our consumption. Fortunately, he is in good health. My mom keeps busy preparing our meals, doing the chores, and looking after my siblings and me. I am glad because she is also healthy. We have sheep and hens at home for our consumption.

My family and I attend the Prince of Peace Church. Thankfully, my parents received Jesus in their hearts many years ago. My mom is sure about her salvation. She appreciates the LW evangelism team for encouraging her to continue growing spiritually. Undoubtedly, LW-Adopt a Child has been a great blessing for my family and me. For instance, I can have delicious and warm lunches at the feeding program. My favorite food is fried chicken. I enjoy celebrating Christmas at LW because of the dramas. To end this letter, my mom asks you to pray for my siblings: Luis, Rufina, and me. In advance, thank you so much. May the Lord reward you richly for your charity!

Sincerely yours,

Maximiliano Gomez Morente
