My Story

Hello! I hope everything is going wonderfully in your life. With much love, Oscar Geremias Jimon Benito says hello. In the name of my family, I want to thank you for each blessing you share with us. Thank God, I am in good health. This year, I am in 7^th grade at school, and I turned 14 years old in August. Living Water has blessed me for about seven years with free lunches and medicine. My best experience has been learning about God. I help my mother by sweeping, mopping and washing clothes at home. I love the cold season. I enjoy being part of the youth group.  

Thanks to God, my family is in good health. I want to tell you that my mother passed away last year due to diabetes. It has not been easy for us, but God has given us the strength to go ahead. Thankfully, my father has been strong and does his best to support our family. He earns a living working as a mason. We share our home with other relatives. My sister-in-law is in charge of me while my father is working. I feel so happy because my father spends time with me on weekend. We attend a church. I would like to ask for your prayers that God will continue to comfort us to face this loss, as our family will never be the same without my mother. Thank you for taking the time to read my short update from this year. I hope you are well when you receive it.

With a big, big hug,

Oscar Geremias Jimon Benito
