My Story

Hello! I am writing this letter to tell you a little about my family and me. My mom helped me with this letter. She is a single parent since my father passed away in 2022. She does her best to cover our basic needs, and at the moment, she earns a living by tending a bakery; in addition, she sometimes works as a maid to get some extra money. She is very grateful to LW Ministry for all the support I have received at the feeding program. She blesses the Ministry and those good-hearted people who support it. A neighbor told her about the feeding program and how children were blessed with delicious meals, so she took the opportunity to register my siblings and me in it.

I am studying, and I am in 9^th grade this year. Thank God, I am in good health. When I am at home, I help to cook. I love the cold weather because the heat drives me crazy. I am 16 years old, and I have been attending the feeding program for 8 years. My family and I are attending the Catholic Church, and I like hearing and understanding God’s Word. I am sure we can enter God’s Kingdom thanks to our good deeds. I want to close my letter asking for your prayers for my family and our economic situation. We know the Lord will help us to go ahead. May God bless you! 

Cordially yours

Luis Miguel Buch Salazar
