My Story

Hello, my name is Lesbia Cristina Rodriguez de la Cruz. I am 12 years old, and I am in 6^th grade. I go to school in the mornings, and after class, I go home to help with the housework and chores. My father’s name is Vicente Rodriguez Riz. He is a construction worker. He works very hard to cover our costs as a family. My mother’s name is Teresa de la Cruz de la Cruz. She is a housewife, and she also sells chickens. At home we grow corn and beans for our own family. Living Water has been a blessing to me and my family by providing delicious free meals each week. My favorite food at the program is the fried chicken. I love the Christmas celebration we do at the program at the end of the year, and I especially love when we receive our gift. Unfortunately, my family and I do not attend a church. I hope you will keep us in your prayers for our health and wellbeing. I send you much love and big hugs.

Many blessings,

Lesbia Cristina Rodriguez de la Cruz
