My Story

Hello! How are you? My name is Heydrien, and I am writing these few lines to tell you about my family and me. Let’s start with my loved ones. I would like to ask for your prayers for my father because he is having alcoholic problems. He only does some chores at home and does not work due to his addiction. It is a difficult situation for us since my mother has to cover all our needs. My mother is a housewife, and she sells fruits in Zacualpa market on Thursday and Sunday. I identify a lot with my mom because she takes care of me very well. In spite of our situation, I thank God because my parents are both in good health.

One of my best experiences has been to start studying because I have learned many things and have made new friends. This year, I am attending kindergarten, and God has been taking care of me the whole time; I have felt His presence over my life. Nelida is my oldest sister, and we like playing soccer in our free time. My family and I are attending a church, and we love it when there are thanksgiving services for the harvest. For me, Jesus is my Savior. My mom helped me to give my information to LW Evangelism team during their visit, and she is the person with whom I identify most. I close my letter hoping to have news from you soon.

With much love

Heydrien Huvalder Agusto Riz de la Cruz
