My Story

Hello! I am Ilaria Gricelda, and this is my update information. I would like to start my letter asking for your prayers for my father because he is suffering from gastritis. He already visited a doctor and is under a medical treatment. He continues living and working in the United States, and he sends my mother money every fifteen days; there, his job consists of fixing car tires. My mother is a housewife, and she raises hens for selling. Thankfully, she is in good health. She helped me with this letter for you, and she is grateful to LW Ministry for blessing me with food and medicine when I get sick. She felt motivated to register us at the program because she heard about how needy children were blessed.

I am repeating my 3^rd grade this year, and after classes, I help my mom to feed the hens. I like sunny days because I do not like the cold. I am 10 years old, and I have been attending the feeding program since I was about 4 years old. I like attending the program’s Bible classes because we pray for the food. My family and I are members of the Catholic Church, and I like attending it because I hear God’s Word. I have given my heart to Jesus, so I am secure I will enter His kingdom. LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to continue seeking God. I thank you so much for reading my letter.

Sincerely yours

Ilaria Gricelda de Leon Garcia
