I greet you in Jesus’ name, and I pray that you are being blessed in a great way. My name is Dany Eliseo, and this is my history. I am in good health, and I am 14 years old. I no longer attend school due to our low resources. I only passed my 6th grade. I now keep busy helping my father to gather firewood and look after the corn crops. To work with my dad has been one of my best experiences, and I am learning to be a good farmer. He is the member of my family with whom I identify most. God has been taking care of us the whole time. I have a friend named Oliver, and we attend the feeding program together. We have known each other for many years.
Thankfully, my parents are in good health, and they are working hard to cover the home expenses. My father is working as a farmer and day laborer, and he also goes to work as a day laborer at the coast during the year. My mother is a housewife and she raises hens and pigs for selling. We are members of a church called King of the Centuries, and we enjoy all the activities done there. We are secure in our Salvation. I want to close my letter expressing my gratitude for all you have done for me through the feeding program. May God bless you!
Sincerely yours
Dany Eliseo Ruiz De La Cruz
