My Story

Good morning! How are you? My name is Wainer Mendez Simaj, and first of all, I want you to know that my parents are grateful for the blessings with a delicious plate of food that I get in the Feeding Program. I registered 7 years ago and I like to pray in the Bible classes before eating. My mother helped to collect this information for the LW teacher.  She continues doing the chores and raising and selling her hens to contribute to the home expenses. Unfortunately, she had a surgery for gallstones and is recovering. By the grace of God, the surgery was successful. On the other hand, my father suffered a facial stroke in November 2025 and he visited the doctor. He took some therapies and thankfully is recovering, and now he is working again. As you know, he lives and works in the United States.

Nowadays, he works in the cornfields and sends money monthly to sustain us. My mother would like to ask for prayers for their health. As believers, we are attending the Christian Church and we enjoy attending together as a family.  Jesus is our Lord and Savior because we already have accepted him in our hearts.  The LW teacher encouraged my mother to continue seeking God. I help her to sweep the house. I am sixteen and I am in 4^th grade this year. My favorite weather is cold, and by the grace of God, I am in good health. Thank you for reading my little story. I wish you all the best!

A bunch of kisses,

Wainer Mendez Simaj
