My Story

This is a beautiful day to say hello to you and send you my updated information through this little story. My name is Elicia Veronica de la Cruz Gutierrez and my family and I are doing fine and in good health. My father Pedro is traveling to the coast every two months and he picks coffee beans. He also is a day laborer and he provides for our financial needs. My mother Manuela is earning a living by weaving and selling typical bags to earn some money and support my father with the home expenses. By the grace of God, my parents are in good health and they are doing their best for our well-being.

For me, Jesus is in heaven, but I am thankful because I am able to attend church and seek him in the Pentecostal Christian Church. We like the vigils and holy supper because it helps us to grow in our faith. LW team encouraged my mother to continue seeking God during the visit because she is assured of her salvation, and she provided all this information.

Thankfully, I am a first-grader and I am a seven-year-old girl. I have been blessed by God with good health and he has been so faithful with my family too. It is the best experience in my life. Marta is the name of my best friend and we like to play hide and seek together. We met a long time ago. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I am sending you all my best wishes!

Lots of love,

Elicia Veronica de la Cruz Gutierrez
