My Story

Good morning! I am blessed to be part of this wonderful Project for five years. I want you to know that my mother also was a registered child in the Feeding Program and she remembers the discipleship group and the Bible classes when she won Bibles as a prize. She is grateful for the medicines, delicious meals and Christmas gift I receive. I also like to attend the Bible classes because we repeat the verses from the Bible. I would like to play the instruments in the praise team from my church.

We belong to the Catholic Church and we like the visits from the leaders. We are assured to go to heaven someday because we have accepted Jesus in our hearts. My mother shared this information to the LW teacher. He prayed for my father because he has alcohol problems.

I will turn twelve on August 19^th.  I feel exhausted due to hot days, so I prefer cold weather. I like to help my mother with some chores at home. I am in fourth grade and by the grace of God, I am in good health. My mother continues raising hens and pigs to sell and earn some money to contribute to the home expenses, and she does the household duties while my father works looking after the cows to sustain us. I beg for your prayers because my father is having problems with alcohol. Thankfully, my whole family is in good health. I hope you like to read my letter and thank you for everything. I love you so much!

In Jesus’ love,

Juan Luis Felipe Chingo Benito
