My Story

Good morning! It is my pleasure to greet you in this beautiful day. My name is Ana Luis Gutierrez. I am a 10-year-old girl. We are a Christian family and attend Prince of Peace Church. At the end of the year, we have a special service to give thanks to God for all the blessings received throughout the year; it is amazing. My sister trusts her salvation in Jesus. We appreciate the encouraging words that an evangelism teacher gave us this time. My dad makes a living as a farmer and day laborer; fortunately, he supplies the home needs. On the other hand, my mom works as a day laborer to contribute to the home needs. My mom siblings and I are doing well. But I want you to pray for my dad who is sick with gastritis and has not visited a doctor due to a lack of resources.

I am so happy because I passed my grade last year and now, I am in third grade. I am in the same grade as my sister, Yolanda. Unfortunately, she did not pass her grade last year. I know that God is giving me the wisdom I need to move forward in my studies. Ana Carolina and I have been friends since we were very young; we like to play football and spend time together in the break at school. I like to spend time with my mom and I also accompany her in her job. Jesus is my faithful friend. I would like you to know that my older sister, Irma, shared this information with an evangelism teacher to update you about me. I say goodbye to you for now and I would like to hear from you very soon. May God bless you wherever you are!

Lots of love,

Ana Luis Gutierrez
