My Story

Good afternoon! This is Adelso Orlando Grave Chivalan, and I live with only under my mother`s care because my father lives and works in the United States. He makes a living by packing meat for a company, and he tries to cover our needs. He sends us money every fifteen days, and we have communication with him because he calls us every day. I ask for your prayers for him because he is suffering from pain in his body and also takes analgesics. My mother has headaches and it has affected her vision. She had some health tests in the Public Center Health and is waiting for her results. She is taking medicines for the pain. In spite of her health, she does the chores at home and she also raises and sells her pigs, cows and hens to earn money and support my father with the home expenses. She also embroiders napkins to sell.

I stay at home and I play with toy cars. I am 6 years old and I am in kindergarten this year. I am in good health and my favorite weather is hot because where I live, it is colder. I like to attend the church along with my family. We are members of the Christian Life Church. We feel encouraged to seek God to be close to him. We are assured of our salvation because we already have received him in our hearts. My mother gave my personal information to the LW teacher and she asks for your prayers for my whole family. Thank you for your attention. Blessings to you!

Strong hugs,

Adelso Orlando Grave Chivalan
