Hello dearest sponsor!  I am happy to say hello to you hoping that you are doing well.  I I live with my parents and my siblings.  My father works in a business and my mother works selling things in the market.  This is how they provide for us and give us our necessities.  We are in good health, but when I am sick, I come to the medical clinic at the feeding program.  I have also been to the dental clinic.  This year, I am studying.  At home, we help to do the household chores.  We get together with our family for birthdays and we have cake.  We have only visited a local amusement park and we had a lot of fun there.  When I grow up, I want to be a firefighter.  In my free time, I like to play soccer or to play on the tablet or the telephone.  I attend a youth group, and each time I come to the feeding program, they teach us about God.  I also attend the Bible classes on Saturdays at the program.  My family always prays for God to help us.  Also, I would like to ask you to pray for us.  Thank you for all of the support that you have given us.  God bless you!

Blessings and much love,

Ruth Noemi Ibarra Godinez
