My Story

Hello! Let me begin by thanking you for taking the time to read my update. I want to tell you that I walk for five minutes to arrive to the feeding program. I am Cristian Braulio but everybody affectionately calls me Cristian. I am 18 years old and I had my birthday in April. I passed my sixth grade a couple years ago and after that I could not continue with my studies. So, now I work farming the land and I have some crops for selling. In this way I can help my mother with some money.

The people who live in the house are my parents, siblings, and me. My mother´s duties are doing the housework and raising hens and pigs for selling. My brother Mario works for a man who has a gas station and he is helping my mother too. Sadly my father passed away some years ago. My family and I are members of Prince of Peace Church. I am grateful to God because we all are in good health. In spite of the hard health situation that we are currently facing in our country, our Lord has been taking care of us. We trust in our Lord's mercy and that He will put His healing hands over all people who are suffering during this pandemic. I would like to receive a letter from you and have the opportunity to share our life experiences with each other.

God bless you!
