Jose Carlos Sanchez Rodriguez


Jose Carlos Sanchez Rodriguez

Jose Carlos lives near the Christian school in barrio Buenos Aires with his mother and five siblings. In fact, Jose Carlos attended the Christian school until last year. This is his first year in high school (7th grade). He is already planning to attend college.

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

The reason I am writing this letter is to first thank God and also to thank you all for having a great heart. Thank you for your willingness to help me. I promise to study and to press on. I wish you many blessings from God. Thanks a lot. May God bless you today and always.

Jose Carlos loves to play soccer and watch out for his younger siblings. He was in the children’s choir while I lived in Trujillo, and he was one of the few students that asked if he could have a book so he could study the songs on his own.
Jose Carlos is to my right in the picture. His little brother, Roberto, is in front of Omar, a neighbor.
