My dear Padrinos, how are you? I hope you and yours are doing fine and enjoying the blessings of God. I want to tell you a little about my family and me with this letter in this opportunity.  I hope you enjoy reading my updated information because it is especially for you with all my love. 

About my family: As a family, we are grateful for every benefit that I have received from the LW Ministries and I want to tell you that we continue attending the Catholic Church. The LW teacher encouraged my mother to continue seeking God during the visit and she is grateful for the good advice because she believes in God. My mother`s name is Leticia Gutierrez Jimon. She lives with us and she takes care of the family. Moreover, she raises hens, pigs and sheep to sell and get some income. She is in good health and she accepted Jesus in her heart a long time ago. My father´s name is Pedro Barrera. He lives with the family and works as a farmer in order to support the family financially, and he covers every expense. In addition, he goes to the coast to pick coffee beans during the harvest season. Moreover, he grows corn and black beans for us. He is in good health and he accepted Jesus in his heart a long time ago. I would like to ask for your prayers for health and provision for my whole family. 

About myself: I am Virginia Sucely Barrera Gutierrez and I am 13 years old. I am a healthy girl and I am not studying this year due to a lack of money. I prefer to work in a food business in the local market of Zacualpa town in order to earn some money and be able to help my family. I spend my weekend collecting firewood for our home. LW Ministries has blessed my family and my life through the delicious meals for lunch like the fried chicken that I love eating there and I have been blessed with medicines in the medical clinic. I enjoyed receiving the special gift during the Christmas celebration at the Feeding Center in December. Thank you for sponsoring me with much love. You are a gift from God in my life!

Lots of love, 

Virginia Sucely Barrera Gutierrez
