San Andrés Itzapa, Guatemala


Angel is a quiet, shy, kind, and very smart boy. He loves to play soccer and is part of a team in his community. He also likes to ride an old bike that he has. He is a top student in his class and likes to study; he also loves to learn new things every day. He is in 5th grade and enjoys recess time since he can play ball with his classmates. At home he helps his mother do the dishes, clean the bathroom, and fold the clothes.


His father’s name is Erick, who is currently 34 years old; he is a man who works hard to provide for his family. Recently he got sick since he had dengue, but praise the Lord, he is doing better. His mother’s name is Iris, who is 35 years old. She is a loving mother and dedicated to her kids when she comes back from work to her home; she works as a teacher. Both parents teach their children about God and good values as well. Angel has two little siblings, Janah, who is 8 years old, and Pablo, who is 6 years old. They all are good kids and obedient to the parents.


They praise the Lord because the house is their own. It has two rooms made with block and sheet metal. In one of the rooms, the family sleeps, and in the other small one, they have their kitchen. As for furniture, they have two wardrobes and three beds, and in the kitchen, they have a cupboard and a stove. They have electricity and running water services.


Both parents truly want their children to overcome in life and have a better future.

Would you be the angel in Angel's life?
