My Story

I hope you are having a brilliant day and doing great alongside your lovely family! Praise the Lord my family and I attend Lamb of God Church, and we go on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. My mother is Alma Lucrecia Tale, and she is 41 years old. She earns a living by working as an assistant accountant. She does her best to support us. My father is Marvin Rene Ruano Monterroso, but he abandoned us, and we do not receive any support from him because he has another family. He works as a food delivery person. My family and I are in good health, thanks to the Lord. Even though I suffer from convulsions, I am fine since I am taking my medicines.

I am Emelyn Andrea Ruano Tale, and I am a 19-year-old girl. I am an eleventh-grade student; I am attending the second year of my professional career to become an accountant. My classes are at school, and it is easy for me to comprehend when my teacher is explaining the topics. My mother is the one who covers the school supplies, but now, everything is expensive, and it is very hard for her. I would like to study to become a physiotherapist because it is very interesting. I would like to learn English; I think it is very interesting language. About drinks, my favorite is Coca-Cola. The sports I like the most are football and basketball. I like meeting up with my family; we do it at Christmas and we have a joyful time. Something I love to do on my birthday is go to church and give thanks to God for blessing me with another year of life. I take this opportunity to give endless thanks for the love and support I receive through Living Water; I am so blessed to be part of the program. We are in need of groceries, shoes and a bed. This is all for now. Many and rich blessings to you!

Huge hugs,

Emelyn Andrea Ruano Tale
