My Story

Hello! How are you? This is Gustavo Enrique, and I am writing this letter to tell you how I am. I am 12 years old, and I am in good health. Thankfully, I am doing a good job at school, and I am in 6th grade this year; I study in the morning. I go out to work with my uncle on weekends. I have been blessed with medicine and lunches at the feeding program, and there, my favorite dish is beef patties. The Christmas celebration is one of my favorite activities at the program; everything is beautiful.  

I live with my mother who is in good health. My mother is a housewife, and she covers our needs with the money that she receives from one of her brothers. His name is Baltazar Portuguez, and he works as a farmer; he is 45 years old. We raise hens, and we sometimes sell them to earn some extra money. We also grow corn, but it is only for our consumption. We are not attending church now, so the LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to seek a church, and we hope to do it soon. I tell you that my mother helped me to give this information to the team, and she took advantage of this to ask for your prayers for the whole family. I end my letter wishing you the best.  

With much love 

Gustavo Enrique Portuguez Garcia
