My name is Mailyn Dayana Guit Garcia, and I am delighted to write this letter to you. I hope this updated information finds you doing well. Fortunately, I am a healthy 11-year-old girl. I attend school as a fifth grader on the morning shift. On weekends, I usually help my mom with the housework. Now, let me tell you that I am thankful to you for blessing me richly through LW-Adopt A Child. Food at the feeding program is delicious, but my favorite is fried chicken. I enjoy celebrating Christmas there because the staff and collaborators perform nice choreographies.
My family and I have been members of Liberty Church for many years. My parents welcomed Jesus many years ago. My mom still has the privilege of working as a cook at the Christian Center for LW. My father makes a living as a farmer and day laborer. After school, my grandmother takes care of me while my parents finish their work day. We raise a few sheep and cows at home for sale. I ask you to pray for my whole family and me, especially for my mom because she is pregnant. Fortunately, she is as healthy as the rest of my family. To end this letter, I want to let you know that a teacher of the LW evangelism team encouraged my grandmother and me to continue moving forward at church. I will leave you now, but I wish you all the best.
Kisses and hugs,
Mailyn Dayana Guit Garcia
