My Story

I greet you lovingly, hoping you are doing well. My name is Glendy, and I want to share my last news with you. My family and I still attend the Prince of Peace Church. We usually do it every Monday. We accepted Jesus as our savior. A member of the LW evangelism team spoke to me to collect this information for you. She also encouraged me to continue growing spiritually. The feeding program is a great help for many families like mine because of the tasty lunches. My mother, Francisca Garcia is 30 years old. Since my father abandoned my family, she has been the only one who supports our needs. She continues selling fruits in the market on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Fortunately, she is in good health. Besides working outside the home, she raises hens and turkeys.

I am eleven years old and my health is in good condition. I am a fourth-grade student. I like attending school because I learn math so much better. One of my dreams is to become a doctor when I am older. Therefore, I would like to count on your prayers because my mother has trouble covering all the bills and my school supplies. Christmas is my favorite because I enjoy burning firecrackers and seeing happy people on the streets. If I could learn a new language like English, I would like to try it. My favorite drink is Incaparina (a typical hot beverage) and I like soccer. My birthday was in March. I like celebrating it by wearing my new and favorite clothes to look lovely. To end this letter, I want you to know that I appreciate you taking the time to read it. See you later!

With much love,

Glendy Janira Encarnacion Suar Garcia
