Providing support in Mexico

Rafael lives with his parents and two brothers in Mexico.

When Rafael was three, the family left Mexico City and moved to Temoaya in order to start a church in the community. While building the church, the family lived in a tent and various small homes.

The church partnered with Compassion, Rafael was registered, and he built a strong relationship with his sponsors. Rafael received a visit from his sponsors, who have helped the family expand their home so all five family members don’t have to share a bedroom. “Thanks to my sponsors,” says Rafael, “I don’t live in a tent or in tiny place anymore. I now have a room that I share with my brother.”
