My Story

Youssef is a lively and kind-hearted 4th grader who lives with his mother and sister in a farming village near the Nile River in Egypt. Their home is surrounded by fields and open skies — a peaceful place to grow up, though life isn’t always easy. Youssef’s mother is a widow and currently unemployed, doing her best to care for her children with limited resources.

Youssef enjoys school, especially English class — it’s his favorite! Science isn’t quite his thing, but he gives it his best shot. He loves the color blue, has a big heart for dogs, and when it comes to food, crispy French fries are his absolute favorite treat.

After school, you’ll most likely find Youssef on the soccer field, kicking the ball around with his friends. At home, he helps out by keeping his room tidy — a small chore, but one he knows makes a difference for his mom.

One of Youssef’s favorite stories from the Bible is the story of David. He’s inspired by David’s courage and faith, and it gives him strength to face his own challenges. As a Christian in Egypt, life can sometimes be difficult, but Youssef holds onto the belief that God is always with him.
