Olvin lives with his parents and two siblings in a town called Bartolo, which is 2 hours walk away from any other town, up in the mountains. His father works planting and harvesting crops. He eats the food that he grows and buy some additional food items when the harvest is ready to sell. His mother stays at home and takes care of the family. With the money and food that his father plants and sells, they are able to eat rice and beans with tortillas but they rarely can afford an egg and even more rarely chicken or meat.
He has one ball to play with and would love to someday own a bicycle. He has one pair of shoes and two sets of clothes.
The family lives in a one room house which has walls made from sticks and mud and roof it made from palm leaves. The floor of their house is only dirt. At night he sleeps on a wooden bed over a sheet because they have no mattress. In the house they had a wood table and some wooden stools but they had to sell them so now they have nothing to eat or sit on. The house has no running water or electricity so we use Kerosene candles at night to see.
Olvin has accepted Christ as his personal savior. His favorite verse is Psalm 6:5. With your support he will attend Sunday school and will hear stories from the Bible and get to sing hymns every weekday at the feeding center.
