My Story

Good afternoon! My full name is Irma Delia De La Cruz Grave and I am doing well along with my whole family. I live with my parents at home and my grandmother also lives with us. My father is not working in the city anymore. Nowadays, he is working as a typical day laborer to sustain the family, and my mother is dedicating her time to the family and household chores. She also raises her hens for our consumption. I help her to make tortillas. I also sweep and wash clothing at home. I want you to know that I am not studying this year due to a lack of money. I stay at home every day. I am fifteen and I love cold weather to wear my warm sweaters. I would like to be part of the praise band from my church because I like to sing.

We are members of the Christian Church and we enjoy listening to and learning the word of God. We are secure in our salvation because Jesus died on the cross for our sins. My mother helped the LW teacher with this information, and she would like to ask for your prayers for my family and health for us. She is thankful for the support with food and Christmas gifts for free for my brothers and me in the Feeding Program. I have belonged to the Project for 10 years, and I enjoy attending the Bible classes because we pray to God. Thank you for blessing my life!

Have a wonderful and peaceful day,

Irma Delia De La Cruz Grave
