My Story

Hello! My name is Kimberly Marilu Yanileth Cruz Clemente, and I am so happy to write this letter for you. I am 13 years old and fortunately, I am a healthy girl. I love playing soccer with my friends. My best friend’s name is Alison. I am pleased to share that I am in seventh grade. Now, let me tell you a little about my family. Fortunately, everybody is doing well. I identify with my older sister because we spend time together. My sister’s name is Sabrina. I love celebrating my birthday with her and the rest of my family. We usually enjoy a delicious lunch prepared by my mom. Let me tell you that she works hard harvesting green beans for a farm in a town called Ciudad Vieja. She just met a good man who loves her so much. He helps us a little economically, even though he does not live with us. His name is Pablo Ramos, and he works in a plant nursery.

We are grateful to my oldest brother because he also helps us economically. He makes a living as a mason. Let me tell you that Jesus is important in my family. I am grateful to LW because they shared the gospel and encouraged us to seek the Lord. We do not attend church at the moment, so please pray for us. Until next time!

Sincerely yours,

Kimberly Marilu Yanileth Cruz Clemente
