My Story

Hello, I am Angela! I am glad to share a little about my life with you. I hope this letter finds you doing well. Let me tell you that my family and I do not attend any church at the moment. However, I am grateful to a teacher of the LW evangelism team for sharing the gospel with my sister Marta. The teacher advised our family through her to look for the Almighty and also took advantage to collect this information for you. My father, Jose Paz, is 31 years old. He has been in prison for many years. Despite that situation, he makes a living by making handicrafts. When he is able to send us some money, he does it. My mother, Lesbia Ramos, is 34 years old. She works as a domestic employee to support our family. Fortunately, none of us are sick. Talking about me, I want you to know that I turned thirteen years old in January. I love eating a delicious cake to celebrate my birthday. My mother strives to buy it for me, although it is not always possible for her.

I am a sixth-grade student this year. I like attending school because I spend time with my classmates during recess. As I told you before, my mother is the one who supports everything at home, including my school needs. It has been hard for her, so I would like to count on your prayers for her. One of my dreams is to become a doctor. I also want to learn how to speak English. My favorite season is summer because we can visit lovely places. There are many sports, but I like soccer. I love drinking Coca-Cola and playing with my cat. To end this update, I want you to know that LW is a great means of help for many families like mine. We are deeply grateful and hope the Lord rewards you and all those for being good-hearted people with me through this project.

With much love,

Angela Karina Paz Ramos
