My name is Augustine Chavez. I am from Guatemala.
I came from Guatemala because in my country we could not live in the economic situation.
It was hard to support a family because there is not enough work and not enough pay
so I had to immigrate to the United States.
In Guatemala I have two kids and my wife.
The kids are young and are studying in school.
My wife does not have a job there because there are no jobs there.
And that is why I am here working
so I can provide for their studies and everything that they need
In my case I feel happy that I can help my family and keep them well. It's sad because
I know they want their father there and as a parent I want my children with me.
I pray that God will one day let them come here. That would be magnificent.
