My Story

Hello! How are you? I greet you with much love hoping my letter reaches you in the right time. I am Tomas Fernando Sucuqui Naz, and I am 13 years old now. I no longer attend school, so I now work as a farmer and day laborer. On weekends, I play with my cousins. Living Water and you have blessed me with medicine and lunches, and my favorite dish is fried chicken. I love Christmas celebration at the feeding program because I play games and receive a present. I have to walk for one hour and then take a bus to arrive to the program.

I live in Las Joyas village with my family. My mother sells herbs and vegetables in our village or goes to Zacualpa town. She is a single mother and it is difficult for her to cover our needs; please pray for our economy. We have hens, pigs and goats, and we grow corn for our consumption. We believe in God and attend Sovereign King Church. I tell you that my grandmother, Maria, helped me to give this information to an Evangelism teacher. I hope you find my letter interesting. I say goodbye to you for now wishing you the best.

With much love

Tomas Fernando Sucuqui Naz
