My Story

I greet you in Jesus’ name hoping my letter reaches you in the right moment. I am Juana Lucrecia, your sponsored child. I am writing you to update my information. I stopped attending school this year due to our low resources. Now, I am working in a soda shop from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm the whole week. Cesar is one of my friends, and we talk about our lives in our free time; we have known each other for a long time. I really identify with my mom because she is a hard-working woman and is present in every decision I take.  For me, Jesus is my heavenly father; He is someone I can talk to confidently.

I want to share with you that my saddest moment has been my father’s death. To this day, I feel sad to talk about him; he was a diabetic person. God has strengthened and consoled my family and me. My mother has done her best to support the family. She tends a grocery store, and thankfully, she is in good health. We are attending a Methodist Church, and I love participating in the Bible classes. We believe in God and the gift of Eternal Life. LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to continue seeking God. My mother and I gave them my information, and I hope you find it interesting.

Many blessings

Juana Lucrecia Barrera De La Cruz
