00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:02.628
Hola. Me llamo Lucia.
00:00:03.310 --> 00:00:06.420
In English, that means
"Hello. My name is Lucia."
00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:09.380
A lot of people don't know my real name.
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:13.511
Instead, they call me
and my family caminantes.
00:00:14.105 --> 00:00:16.445
In English, that means people who walk.
00:00:17.065 --> 00:00:18.605
Why do they call us that?
00:00:19.225 --> 00:00:21.725
Where I come from, life is very hard.
00:00:22.505 --> 00:00:25.725
There is no food or medicine or school.
00:00:26.660 --> 00:00:28.415
My mom wants a good life for me,
00:00:28.970 --> 00:00:31.480
so she packed our bags
and we started walking.
00:00:32.180 --> 00:00:33.720
We walk across mountains.
00:00:34.340 --> 00:00:38.120
We walk in the hot and the cold,
the rain and the sun.
00:00:38.785 --> 00:00:41.085
We sleep on the street
when it is nighttime.
00:00:41.935 --> 00:00:43.858
Sometimes it is fun adventure.
00:00:44.975 --> 00:00:49.855
Other times, I'm scared and tired
and just want to go home.
00:00:50.945 --> 00:00:55.070
But we keep walking and searching
for a good place to live.
00:00:55.770 --> 00:01:00.281
It is not easy, but we are thankful
for the nice people who help us.
00:01:00.970 --> 00:01:02.750
They give us food and water.
00:01:03.130 --> 00:01:04.990
They give us medicine and rest.
00:01:05.610 --> 00:01:10.085
And when we find our new home,
they will even help me go to school.
00:01:10.705 --> 00:01:12.885
I hope we find our new home soon.
00:01:15.265 --> 00:01:17.066
ADRA is doing incredible work
00:01:17.066 --> 00:01:19.463
to support immigrants and refugees
around the world.
00:01:19.825 --> 00:01:21.159
They provide essential services,
00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:24.498
like food, shelter, education,
and health care
00:01:24.498 --> 00:01:25.866
to families who've been displaced
00:01:25.866 --> 00:01:29.070
by conflicts, natural disasters,
or other challenges.
00:01:29.850 --> 00:01:31.850
ADRA not only meets immediate needs
00:01:31.850 --> 00:01:35.020
but also helps refugees
and immigrants rebuild their lives
00:01:35.450 --> 00:01:37.790
by offering long-term support
and training.
00:01:38.495 --> 00:01:41.075
ADRA is making a real difference
in the lives of people
00:01:41.075 --> 00:01:42.995
who are starting over in new places,
00:01:43.375 --> 00:01:45.322
often under difficult circumstances.
00:01:46.515 --> 00:01:48.255
When you give to the mission offering,
00:01:48.255 --> 00:01:52.550
a portion of that offering helps fund
ADRA's important work around the world.
00:01:53.420 --> 00:01:55.440
Thank you for your generous support.
