My Story

I am so glad to greet you in the name of Jesus hoping you are fine! My name is Ruth Noemi Garcia Chingo. I am an 11-year-old girl. This year I attend 5th grade and I receive classes on the morning shift. I usually help my mother with some chores after I finish my homework. I like to spend time with my family, so we do it on weekends when we all are at home. My father does masonry work to sustain our family. On the other hand, my mother raises hens to sell and get some income. Additionally, we cultivate corn to make our tortillas. I want to

ask for your prayers for myself. I started my menstrual cycle and I am having strong pain which is uncomfortable for me. Thankfully, I can receive medical care in LW clinics.

What I love the most from the Christmas activity in the feeding program is the hug I receive with my gift; it feels so warm. Living Water has been blessing my life in many ways, and the food and medicines are very helpful for me and my family. The food I love the most about the program is chicken in special tomato sauce with spices which is delicious. We attend Lamb of God Prince of Peace Church; my parents are deacons and we have welcomed Jesus into our hearts. Moreover, my mother goes to visit and pray for our people in need. I want to ask for your prayers for the well-being and provision of my family. This time a member of LW visited me and I gave this information to update you about me. I hope you like my letter. Many and rich blessings over you!

Hugs with much love,

Ruth Noemi Garcia Chingo
