It is my pleasure to greet you through this letter, and I hope it reaches you in the right time. I tell you that my mom was part of the feeding program when she was a child, and it was a beautiful experience for her, so it motivated her to enroll me there. She says that she attended the program twice a week and she loved it when she received a present. She wants to thank you for blessing my life through the meals, medicine and Christmas presents. I have been attending the program for about 3 years, and I like the Bible classes because of the games.
This year, I am in 3rd grade, and after classes, I help with some household chores like washing the dishes. I love the cold days because I can drink coffee. As you know, I only live with my mother because my father abandoned us; I do not have any information about him. My mother earns a living by weaving typical clothes and raising hens; all this is for selling. Thankfully, she is in good health. She helped me with this letter, and she wanted to take advantage of this letter to ask for your prayers for our family and health.
I love taking part in the children’s activities that my church organizes for us. We are members of the Catholic Church, and we serve God there because He gives us life every day. We have given our hearts to God, so we are secure that we will enter His Kingdom. Well, this is all for now. I hope to have news from you soon.
Warm greetings
Bianca Carina de la Cruz Garcia
