My Story

Blessings to you in the name of Jesus! This is Anderson Jonathan Garcia Gutierrez. Jesus is my savior and healer. I know he is the son of our almighty God, and as you know, my grandparents and I are persevering in the same Christian Church. We like the thanksgiving service for our first crops and when we celebrate the anniversary of the church. My grandmother Manuela was encouraged by LW team when they shared the gospel with her and she helped to collect this information.

I continue living under my grandparent`s care and sometimes I feel sad because I cannot spend time with my parents. As you know, they live and work in the United States, but thankfully God comforts my heart with his presence and peace and he helps me every day. I have a good emotional connection with my grandfather because I go with him to his job, and we spend a lot of time together. My best friend`s name is Nazario Morente and we like to play soccer and do our homework from classes when we have the opportunity. I am a third grade student and I am an eleven year old boy.

My parents are doing their best for my well-being. My father continues working in a barbershop while my mother also works but we do not know about her job. They send us money every month to cover my expenses and they always call me. My mother`s name is Rosa Maria and my father`s name is Mario Antonio. I am thankful because my parents and grandparents are in good health. My grandfather earns a living by working as a farmer and day laborer. He is 60 years old and his name is Pedro Garcia. My grandmother`s name is Manuela Morente and she is 59 years old. She does the chores at home and she also weaves typical clothes to sell and she takes care of me. Well, this is my updated information and I hope you enjoy reading it. Blessings to you in the name of Jesus!

Warm wishes,

Anderson Jonathan Garcia Gutierrez
