My Story

Hello! I am Wendy, and it is a blessing to greet you through this letter. I hope you find it engaging. I attend the Catholic Church twice weekly with my family; we are sure about our salvation. Thanks to God's mercy, my family and I have received so much help at the feeding program. In addition, the staff encouraged us to continue trusting in the Almighty while they collected my last news for you. My father is Sebastian Sicajau; he still lives and works in the United States. He supports our needs by looking after pigs on a farm. My mother is Victoria Ruiz, and she also works hard at home and sells bananas, corn, and domestic animals to get extra income. We raise hens, a few sheep, and cows. Thankfully, my whole family and I are healthy.

I am nine years old. My next birthday will be in November, so I would like to have a delicious cake to celebrate with my family. I am in third grade; I prefer to receive face-to-face classes because I learn the lessons better. Nowadays, everything is expensive, so it has been hard for my parents to buy food and school supplies. I am doing my best at school because I want to become a baker when I am older; I hope to accomplish it. I also would like to learn how to speak English. Christmas is my favorite time of the year because of the tasty tamales. I love drinking water and I like soccer. This is all for now, but I wish you the best and your loved ones.

With much love,

Wendy Lucrecia Sicajau Ruiz
