My Story

Hello! how are you? I send you all my best wishes, hoping you and yours are doing fine. Jesus is my savior, and along with my family, I am attending the Christian Church. I like to celebrate the thanksgiving service along with many children of my church. My mother is thankful to LW Adopt-A-Child for the blessings that I receive in the Feeding Center. She was encouraged by LW team to go ahead in God’s paths. She is trusting in God because she welcomed Jesus in her heart. Her name is Irma and she continues weaving the edges of typical skirts to earn money to cover some family needs while my father Martin is working in the United States. Currently, he earns a living by cleaning a restaurant.

He calls us every day and he also sends money every fifteen days to sustain us financially. Unfortunately, he suffers from pain in his right knee, but he visited the doctor and is under medical treatment. By the grace of God, my mother and I are in good health and I am studying the 6^th grade. My name is Jose Luis Tino Cux and I am 12 years old. My best friend is Antony and we like to play soccer. We have been friends for many years. I want to tell you that I was so sad when my father left to go to the United States, but God was with me. He comforted my heart with his presence and peace. I admire my mother because of her personality. Thank you for your attention. Every kind of blessing for you!

Warm regards,

Jose Luis Tino Cux
