My Story

It is such a blessing to greet you from the most beautiful Central American country, Guatemala. My full name is Jefry Eleazar Gonzalez Garcia, and I am so happy because everything went well at school. I am sure that God heard my prayers. I am 11 years old, and I was in fifth grade. I love playing soccer with my best friend, Yordi and other guys in my village. We have been friends for about five years. About my spiritual life, I tell you that Jesus is my savior and friend. I enjoy learning about him at church. My family and I attend Ebenezer Church, and we enjoy taking part in the Thanksgiving services for the harvest. My mother accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior many years ago. I love and admire her strength and wisdom as she watches over our family. She is a housewife and dedicates part of her time to raising chickens and embroidering typical clothes to contribute to the expenses with her income. My father makes a living as a driver. He does all his best to cover our essentials. This is all for now, but I appreciate you taking the time to read my information. May God bless you richly!

Special hugs from the distance,

Jefry Eleazar Gonzalez Garcia
