My Story

Hello, everybody! I am Crisla Jimena Sebastian Mejia and it is such a blessing to share with you a little bit about my life. I am a healthy 12-year-old girl. I am in sixth grade and I usually help my mother to wash the dishes and make the beds to contribute to the household chores. I like the cold weather and I am pleased to tell you that I attend the youth group at my church. I attend Liberty Church in my town alongside my family. We feel motivated to persevere there because the services help us to build a relationship with the Lord.

I tell you that my mother has assurance of her salvation in Jesus Christ, and due to that, she was encouraged to keep going in her faith by brother Franklin, a member of the LW staff. I want to use this opportunity to express how grateful my mother is for the food, dental and medical care that I can receive at the feeding program. My mother enrolled me there about eight years ago. She felt motivated to do it because she heard good comments about it. Fortunately, my whole family is doing well. My father makes a living by doing maintenance to machines, while my mother works as a day laborer in a place called “Palo Blanco” in our town. It is time to say goodbye, but I hope you found my information engaging. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards,

Crisla Jimena Sebastian Mejia
