My Story

Hello! I am Ana Micaela. I really hope you are in good health and receiving many blessings from our Lord. I want to start my letter expressing my gratitude to good-hearted people like you because you make it possible for me to receive a great support at the feeding program. To hear how needy children were blessed at the program was what motivated my parents to register me in it. I have been part of the program for many years, and I have enjoyed the Bible classes because I like praying. I no longer attend school this year due to our low resources. I help my mother with some chores like washing clothes. I love the cold drinks so I prefer the hot weather.

Thank God, my parents are in good health, and they are working hard for the family. My father works as a farmer and day laborer while my mother weaves typical blankets and raises hens and pigs for selling. My mom has a small stand outside the feeding program where she sells fruits and snow cones, and my sister and I tend it. We also go to pick coffee beans at the coast for one or two months once a year, and this is the way my sister and I help with the home income. At the moment, we are not attending a church. My mom helped me with this letter for you, and we would like to ask for your prayers for our family and health. I say goodbye to you for now.

Yours truly

Ana Micaela Garcia Poncio
