My Story

Hello! I hope you are doing well wherever you are. This is Jenifer Candy, and it is a great pleasure for me to write you this letter. I tell you that I live with my mother and stepfather. My mom’s name is Maria, and she earns a living by tending a grocery store and making tortillas to sell. My stepfather’s name is Ismael, and he works at a tempered glass store to support the family. Thankfully, they both are in good health. We are still members of New Jerusalem Church, and we attend the services at night every day. At the moment, we are in need of groceries.

I have four cats and three dogs as pets. I am a healthy boy who is 12 years old. I like playing soccer, and my dream is to become a teacher. I also would like to learn English language in the future. I am now in 3^rd grade, and I prefer to attend school in person because it is easier to learn. Thankfully, my mother does her best to support me with my studies. My favorite drinks are sodas, and I love summertime because I can go out for a walk. I enjoy a special lunch and cake when it is my birthday. I am really blessed through the feeding program, and I am very grateful for that; Living Water is very important for me. I say goodbye to you for now. May God bless you!

All the best
