Hello! I greet you hoping you are having a blessed 2025 full of the presence of God in your life. I would like first of all to thank you for taking the time to read a little more about my family and me. This is Marvin Eliseo de la Cruz Ajqui, I am 16 years old and am in good health condition. I work as a farmer and day laborer in order to support my parents financially. The most important experience in my life is to have a job. I feel the presence of God and I am grateful with him for his love. Jesus is my savior. I have a good relationship with my father because we have the same nature. I am so happy because I have some friends in the Feeding Center and we play football when we gather. We have been friends since our childhood. 

My mother`s name is Hilda Ajqui Garcia.  She lives with us and she contributes to our home income by raising and selling her hens, turkeys and cows. She is in good health condition.  My father is in good health condition, and he sustains our family financially by working in a restaurant washing dishes. As you know, he lives in the United States and his name is Carlos de la Cruz Riz. Nowadays, we are members of the Catholic Church, and in December, we celebrate the “Posadas” (it is a small procession which represents when Joseph and Mary were looking for a place where Jesus could be born). The LW teacher shared the gospel with my mother who is insecure in her salvation even though she attends the church. This is all for now and I send you many greetings with much affection! (My mother helped to collect this information for the LW evangelism teacher) 

Strong hugs, 

Marvin Eliseo De la Cruz Ajqui
