My Story

This is Olga Marina Yat Choc, and I am writing this to update my 2023 information. First, I will tell you about my family. Currently, we are members of Lamb of God Church, and we attend the services on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. We have one cat as a pet. We are a humble family, and our greatest needs are groceries, beds and a wardrobe. My father’s name is Eduardo. He is 47 years old, and he is in good health. He is now working as a garbage collector to support us. My mother’s name is Amalia. She is 39 years old, and she is in good health too. She sells typical homemade snacks in the afternoons to help with the income.

Now let me tell you a little about myself. I am 16 years old, and I am healthy. I am in 10^th grade, and it is the first year of my professional career; it is a training in computing. I am happy to receive face-to-face classes because it is easier to learn. It has been difficult for my father to cover my school expenses because my other siblings are studying too. I want to become a policewoman when I am older. My favorite celebration is Christmas because I share time with my family and friends. I enjoy eating cake with my family when it is my birthday. I prefer swimming as a sport, and I love drinking blackberry juice. I would like to learn English language in the future. Living Water is very important in my life because I have received material and spiritual support. I hope to hear from you soon.

All the best
