My Story

Hello! It is a great pleasure to greet you through this letter. I am Edrickson Orlando Suar Chingo, and I am six years old. I am in kindergarten, and I am receiving two hours of face-to-face classes every day. It is a little difficult for me to memorize what the teachers explain. I spend my time playing and doing my homework. During the time that the program was closed, I missed attending it, the food and playing with my friends, but fortunately, the program is open again, and I travel about 30 minutes by bus to arrive. Currently, my father returned to live with us, and he is working as a brick layer helper. He is helping us to supply our needs. My mother does the chores at home and raises domestic animals to sell. We spend good time as a family every night because we meet to watch TV programs.

On Christmas, we invite our relatives and share good time with them. At the moment, we are not attending church, but the evangelism teacher encouraged us to seek God. We live in our own house which is made of adobe, tin sheet roof and dirt floor. We have running water and electricity. There are two rooms and a kitchen. Fortunately, we are in good health. It was a little difficult for us to recover financially due to the pandemic, but thank God, now we are stable. The groceries that we received from Living Water were a great blessing for us. Let me tell you that my mother helped me to give this information. I say goodbye to you for now. I thank you for reading my letter. Many blessings!

Lots of hugs,

Edrickson Orlando Suar Chingo
