My Prayer, by Jemar Cornelio

Tami, Lift the Lid can’t thank you enough for your donation to The School in a Cart in Cubao, the Philippines. Jemar writes about his longing for a house for himself, his four younger siblings, and his parents. His family was promised a house by a television program hostess for their participation in her project, which to date the family has not seen. Jemar mentions this in his essay. Living on the street since birth, it is not surprising what Jemar asks the Lord for as he prays this Easter, 2012. Jemar is 12 years old and is going into the 5th grade.
