My Story

Hello! This is Elmer Bernaldo Ixparpuac Gonzalez, and I am happy to greet you through this letter. First, I want to start telling you about our spiritual life. We are grateful to LW Evangelism team because they have shared God’s Word. We attend Rock of Salvation Methodist Church, and we attend it on Monday and Friday. We are a humble family, and our frequent needs are groceries and clothes. We raise hens and pigs, and grow corn for our consumption. My mother’s name is Guadalupe, and she is 53 years old. She is in good health and sometimes weaves or embroiders typical clothes of others. My father’s name is Domingo, and he is 56 years old. He works as a farmer or day laborer to support the family. I want to ask you to pray for him because he is recovering from a little accident that he had. He hurt his right foot and little finger. He did not visit a doctor due to our low resources and is only taking pain pills.

Living Water and you are very important for me because I receive support in different ways. I am fine, and I am 12 years old. I am in 3rd grade, and the teacher teaches us more now that we are attending school in person. I want to become a businessman when I am older. I would like to learn English language in the future. I enjoy Christmas time because I can light fireworks. When it is my birthday, I eat cake. I prefer soccer as a sport, and I love drinking sodas like Pepsi. Well, I end my letter hoping you find it interesting. 

With much love

Elmer Bernaldo Ixparpuac Gonzalez
