My name is Jesus Valeria Valencia Medrano and I was born on April 29th, in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico. Since I was 4 years old, I have been living in foster homes because my parents  did not  took care of me. Although this path has been difficult, I have learned valuable lessons that have strengthened me. I have many wishes and dreams of being recognized for my effort and dedication in my goal of becoming an architect and interior designer. I am vey passionate about everything  in this area, and it constantly inspires me.

Throughout my life, I have found unconditional love in God, who never abandons me. I feel fortunate to have a family that makes me feel special, even on difficult days. This family is called Ancla de Amor, a place that has given me strength and protects me from all evil. I deeply appreciate each one of the people around me: my friends, my aunts, and especially our directors, Aunt Clarissa and Uncle Brian, who welcomed me with open arms and have inspired me to be a true daughter of God.

I  made the decision to not only be a creation of God, but to accept Him into my heart as my Lord and Savior. Throughout my life, I have witnessed many miracles, and I am convinced that He deserves not only my faith, but everyone’s faith. I know that for some this may seem insignificant, but I have nothing more to offer to God than my spirit and my gratitude.

I thank with all my heart all those who make this beautiful work possible and support Ancla de Amor. I hope that one day God will multiply His blessings abundantly upon you.

May God bless you.
