My Story

Hello! My name is Ergi Cito. I am 3 years old and my birthday is on October 23^rd. I am doing well and in good health. My favorite color is blue. At present I frequent the kindergarten. I enjoy learning new things from my teacher there and in the same time, I have made many friends while we play and share the toys that the kindergarten has got for us. My favorite toys are car-toys. I have a few in my home too and when I am inside, I like to ride them in the room we stay. I return home from the kindergarten at noon and right after I enjoy the lunch that my mother has cooked for me, I get together to play with my friends outside for a few hours, when t he weather is warm and dry. We play hide and seek and many other simple games. I also like to play with ball. During the evenings, especially on weekends, my family and I like to also go for walks by the lake. During the evenings, while I am inside my house, I like to watch cartoons on the TV but I also like to draw and color.

My family and I live in Pogradec. My father’s name is Aldi and my mother’s name is Denisa. I have two brothers. Saidi is 8 years old and he is also registered in the sponsorship programme of Adopt a Child. My father and mother are both jobless. As family we are to live with low income and we are thankful to have the opportunity to join the sponsorship programme and benefit. My mother is doing the housekeeping, cooking, cleaning, etc, She is also taking special care for me because I am a small child. The local government is giving to my parents a small amount considered as social assistance. This amount is small and helpful for us to pay the bills for electricity and water. The Living Water Adopt a Child church in Pogradec has the services on Saturdays. After the time of worship, the children go to the Bible classes and there they are taking Bible lessons from the teachers of our staff. Before the church service, our Pastor is also organizing a special youth meeting where they can fellowship and study the Bible altogether. We have during the week a Bible study for the ladies, on Thursdays. Every six weeks, the children who are frequenting the progarmme receive a food package that is provided from Adopt a Child. The package contains rice, oil, pasta, sugar, etc. Thank you for helping us to care for these children and tell them the Good News about Jesus. God bless you!
