Dear Padrinos, I greet you from the bottom of my heart and I hope you and yours are doing well. I want to tell you a little about my family and me with this letter in this opportunity.  I hope you enjoy my updated 2024 information because it is specially for you with all my love. Thank you for your support and love. You are a gift from God in my life! 

About my family: As you know, we are attending the Life Christian Church. My parents are leaders from the Church and I belong to the Youth Group. I accepted Jesus in my heart 7 years ago. The LW teacher encouraged my sister during the visit and she is grateful for the advice. My mother`s name is Rufina Garcia Gutierrez. She lives with us and she is a housewife. Moreover, she sells hand-made snacks in the local school. In addition, she raises hens, pigs and sheep to sell and get some income. The hens are for our consumption. She is a healthy woman and she accepted Jesus in her heart many years ago. My father`s name is Santos Gutierrez Garcia. He lives with us and he is a healthy man. He provides for our family needs by working as a farmer and day laborer. Furthermore, he grows coriander and some herbs to sell and corn for our family consumption. I would like to ask for your prayers for my whole family. 

About me: I am Irma Esperanza Gutierrez Garcia and I am 24 years old. I am a healthy girl. I stay at home helping my mother with the chores. I want to tell you that I am learning to weave typical belts. I spend my weekend by going to the Church and to the market. LW Ministries has blessed my family and my life through the delicious and free meals for lunch like the fried chicken that I love eating there. Moreover, I have been blessed by medicines in the medical clinic. I enjoyed receiving my special gift during the Christmas celebration at the Feeding Center in December. I send you all my love!
