My Story

Hello! This is Anllely Garcia, and I am writing you this letter hoping it reaches you in the perfect time. I want to update my information for this year. I turned 11 in November, and I am in good health. I am in 4^th grade this year, and I am happy to attend school in person because it is easier to study the lessons. My family’s economy is not so good since my mother is a single parent, so it has been difficult for her to support me with my studies. I want to become a pastry cook, and I would like to learn English language in the future. I enjoy eating cake with my family when it is my birthday. My favorite celebration is Christmas because I share good moments with my loved ones. Other personal tastes are swimming as a sport and Coca-Cola as a beverage.

We are grateful to Living Water and you for blessing me with material and spiritual support through the feeding program. We are a humble family, and we are frequently in need of groceries; we are praying to God since we want to buy a bed and wardrobe so please join us in our prayers. My mother’s name is Melissa, and she is 33 years old. She works hard as a maid. She is the only one who covers our needs since my father abandoned us years ago. I would like to ask you to pray for my mommy since she suffers from diabetes and is under a medical treatment to control it. We are members of Christian Embassy Church, and we attend the service on Sunday. We have one dog as a pet. I close my letter wishing you the best and praying God pours our many blessings upon you.

All the best

Anllely Jire Garcia Cifuentes
