My Story

Hello! I am Liria Cristina, and I am happy to have the opportunity to tell you about my family and me. I am in good health, and I am 17 years old. I no longer attend school due to our low resources. Now, I am working in a tortillas business in another town to help my family financially. It has been a new but good experience for me because I am earning my own money. God has been taking care of me, and I am very grateful to Him for that. I have heard about Jesus, and I am sure to say that He is our only Savior. Marisela is my aunt’s name, and I attend the feeding program with her.

My mother and I love talking about our personal things, and she is the person with whom I identify most. She is a housewife, and she raises pigs and hens for selling. My father works as a farmer and day laborer, and he is our main provider. Thankfully, my parents are both healthy. At the end of the year, the whole family goes to pick coffee beans at the coast for three months. I like all the activities done at my church, and we are members of one called King of the Centuries. We are secure in our Salvation, so LW Evangelism team just encouraged us to continue trusting in God. My mom helped me with my letter, and I hope you find it interesting.

With much love

Liria Cristina Yolanda Simaj Ruiz
