Hello! My full name is Wilson Franciso Carrillo Cano and I am pleased to share my 2026 updated information with you. I am 18 years old and I graduated from high school last year. I studied a training in tourism and hospitality. I wanted to attend the university, but I found a job at a restaurant called Antigua Boreal in Antigua Guatemala, which has been a great blessing for me. However, I have not been doing well since I started to suffer from cardiovascular problems in December of last year. They did an electrocardiogram and told me that arteries at the right side are clogged, so I kindly ask you to pray for me so that God puts his healing hands upon me. I tell you that I do not attend church because of work, but I strive to attend the youth group at Liberty Church. I feel motivated to go there because they help me to learn more about God and grow spiritually.

Sister Princesa (a member of the LW staff) recently shared the gospel with me and asked me why God should allow me to get into Heaven. I told her that I trust that I am God’s son because I accepted Jesus in my heart and I was baptized. I trust that only by his mercy, will I be admitted into Heaven. She congratulated and encouraged me to continue looking for God, which I recognize are very important for my spiritual life. Now, let me tell you a little about my family. My stepfather makes a living by buying and reselling tools and appliance spare parts to support our family. He suffers from hypertension, but he is stable thanks to the treatment that he takes. On the other hand, my mother keeps busy doing the household chores. She is also under treatment because she suffers from varicose veins. Some of my siblings and grandmother live with us, and they are doing well. To end this letter, I tell you that I am grateful to LW-Adopt A Child for all the support I have received during the last seven years that I was enrolled at the feeding program. Until next time!

Sincerely yours,

Wilson Franciso Carrillo Cano
