My Story

Hello! My name is Ueisi Mece. I am 3 years old and my birthday is on July 25th. I am in good health.  My favorite color is orange and my future dream is to be a football player. My favorite game to play is football so when I meet with my friends, every afternoon I play football. I spend my day playing inside my home with car toys but I also go outside to play with my friends for a while. Our games are simple as hide and seek, run races, riding bicycles, etc. I don’t go too far from home so that while I play, my grandmother can keep an eye on me and care for me. I have started to attend the kindergarten from September and enjoy my time there. My mother brings me to attend it from morning till midday and staying there, my teacher is teaching to me to draw and color. I have made many friends while we play and share the toys that the kindergarten has got.  

My family and I live in Pogradec. My father’s name is Vasil and my mother’s name is Dorina. I have a step sister who got also registered in the sponsorship programme of Adopt a Child. Her name is Anisa. She is 16 years old. My mother was previously married with Anisa’s father and he died. My mother remarried again and I was born. After I was born, my father also died. This way, my mother is carrying for my sister and I all by herself. At present, we are living together with my grandmother in a home that we are renting in Pogradec. My mother makes sure that we are provided in our needs and raise us. My mother has a job and she works in a small shop where they make pies and sell them. She earns too less and we are living with low income. The government is giving to both of us a special amount that is dedicated to orphans and out of that amount we can be supplied with food and clothes.  

The church of Living Water Adopt a Child in Pogradec has a children’s Bible class on the same time with the church service, every Saturday. During the week, other Bible studies for men and ladies are also taking place. The sponsorship programme of Adopt a Child is providing to the children a package that contains food as sugar, pasta, rice, oil, etc. The children get this package every six weeks and come together with their parents in our church activities. We are thankful to all who support our children in the church of Pogradec as we are serving to them spiritually and physically.  God bless you richly!
