My Story

Hello, everybody! I fondly greet you in the name of Jesus, hoping you are doing well. I am Kimberly Liliana Ruiz Gutierrez and I am pleased to share a little bit about my life with you. I am 9 years and I am in second grade at school. Thankfully, I am a healthy girl and I like drinking cold beverages when it is hot. At home, I usually help to sweep or do other chores. The people who I live with are my parents and two sisters. They are in good health, which is a blessing. My father is the main supporter of my family and he makes a living as a day laborer and farmer. My mother is a housewife and sells homemade snacks to contribute to the household chores.

We are members of a nearby Christian Church and our main motivation to go there is learning more about the gospel. I am pleased to tell you that my mother accepted Jesus in her heart some years ago, so she does not have any doubt about her salvation. It is almost time to end this letter, but I want you to know that my family and I are grateful for the Bible teaching, food, and medicine that I can receive for free at the feeding program. We know these blessings can only be possible thanks to the donations that many kind people like you provide to this charity organization, so we pray that God blesses you richly.

From the bottom of my heart,

Kimberly Liliana Ruiz Gutierrez
