We are grateful to God for this show of charity and brotherhood and to you for the supper our families received and your packages of basic pantries. Also we tank brother Andres Hernandez (full-time lay missionary), for the great support he has given us, offering us shelther for our families, thanks to him at least we have a roof to shelter our children.
