Henry Alexander Merino Galan
28 years old / Farmer
Henry works every day and enjoys playing video games in his free time. He lives with his wife, Magdalena, and their daughter, Karla, who is 8 years old. Karla wasn’t home at the time because she was at school.
When Henry received the call about the new house, he was at work. He ran to tell his wife, and she cried with joy, thanking God for this blessing.
Magdalena Guatemala de Merino
26 years old / Homemaker
Magdalena takes care of household chores. Like her husband, she also enjoys playing video games and watching movies with him. She is excited about their new home because they will no longer have to suffer during the rainy season.
The family owns the land where their house stands. They made a great effort to purchase the land and build their house two years ago. However, during the rainy season, water leaks inside because the metal sheets are old and full of holes. The roof lifts when strong winds blow. Every night, they pray to God for a safe home for their daughter.
