My Story

Hello dearest sponsor!  It is a joy to be able to say hello to you through this letter hoping that God is giving you good health.  I want to tell you that I live with my parents and my little brother.  My mother has a small store in our home, and my father works as a street vendor selling different types of things.  He does not have a fixed job or a particular item that he sells.  I go to the clinic at the feeding program when I am sick.  At home, I help my mother with her store and with the household chores.  Thanks to God, I did well in school this year (2019) and my favorite subject was communication.  My dream is to have a beauty salon one day.  I like to play dolls, jump ropes and talk with my friends at school about things that all girls like to talk about.  I attend a church called “Refuge of the Lamb”. 

I want to tell you that I am very sad because my uncle passed away.  I ask for your prayers for my mother because this was her brother and his death has affected her a lot.  I know that God is faithful and that He will heal our hearts.  May God bless you!  I send you a big hug. 

Blessings and much love,

Lizeth Etelvina Cano De La Cruz
