Elias Lopera is a priest who is a community helper. He went to a school to become a priest. He works in a church called Santa Maria de Los Angeles. He works with other priests, but he is the only one that collects the money and sends it to the poor people. He is a caring and fair person who wants everyone to have the same opportunities.
He became a priest because he loves God a lot. He did not like to see people without water, food, clothes, and shelter. Seeing people in this situation is really hard for him so he decided to become a priest and help people. All his life he has being a really good person.
These are some important details why this person is a community helper. He helps because it makes him feel happy seeing other people happy such as when a kid gets toys, clothes, water, food, and a place to live. Seeing that makes him feel happy. It makes him feel happy because these people don't have the same opportunities as him or other people everywhere. Once when he went to a town to give things to the poor people, he felt really sad because he saw people without a part of their body and a lot of kids and women were burned. He loves talking with them because they tell him their dreams and he gets happy.
I consider this person a hero because I think it is really nice that whatever happens, he will still help people and that is really important. He has helped around so many people each year. I think that is really caring and nice. He's a really good person. This is why I consider this person a hero.
