Letter from the family:
We present ourselves to you as the Martínez Abarca family.
As a family, it gives us joy to be able to write this letter because we can see that the prayers we make to God are never in vain and that they are never late. God's timing is the most perfect, and we can see that it is one more step where God answers our requests.
We want to share a little with you about our situation, which is why we are asking for your support to be able to obtain a Esperanza house.
We are a family of 4 members, dad Juan Ernesto Martínez, 29 years old. Mother Zuri Esveidy Abarca Hernández, 25 years old, daughter Emily Denisse Abarca Hernández, 7 years old, and our 5-month-old baby Eithan Isaac Martínez Abarca.
We live on our land, but with a mobile home that some brothers lent us where we congregate, we have been living here since July 16, 2022. Unfortunately, the mobile home is very damaged, the ceiling in the entrance area is very damaged, a window is smashed and broken, because of this we had to cover it with wood. When it rains it drips from the roof and water gets through the window, and at night we are cold because of the broken window and the window is located where we all sleep together.
Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to repair the mobile home, since only 1 member of this family is the one who works and is a father.
Juan Ernesto, who with effort is the one who supplies in this house, Mom cannot work because she is the one who takes care of the children at home and does the domestic work at home. Sadly, our children have gotten sick because of the cold wind blowing into the house, to the point that we had to nebulize the baby because he got bronchiolitis. Thank God today the baby is stable.
We do not ask for or look for a luxurious house, we just want to live with dignity in a house where our children will not be cold, where tomorrow they will have a room to sleep in and a small table to sit at and eat. God knows our hearts and the great need we are going through, and that is why we share this need with you. In Psalms 37:4 it says delight yourself in the Lord, and he will grant the desires of your heart. We thank you for allowing us to express our situation with you. For us, it would be a great blessing if our children have a place to live. Thank you for reading our letter, where we express our need for God to bless you greatly.
Hello, my name is Emily Denise, I am 7 years old, and I am in first grade. My wish is that my little brother and I can one day have a little house where we no longer have to be very cold, much less get wet from the leaks in the house. My dream is to have my own room, so I can play with my little brother. I know that one day we will have the house that I have dreamed of so much, I hope that one day God can fulfill that dream.
