I greet you with much love hoping you are doing well. I am Maydelin Brizayda, and I want to share about my life through this letter. I live with my parents and siblings in Duenas town. My father works as a guard in a coffee farm, and as you know, he suffers from chronic renal insufficiency. My mother works hard at home, and she continues taking medicine to control her diabetes. My family and I are now attending the Catholic Church of our town. An LW Evangelism teacher encouraged us to continue seeking God, and he took advantage of this occasion to pray for my parents’ health; please keep them in your prayers too. My parents are receiving their medical treatments at a public hospital.
I have really liked the Christmas activities at the feeding program because we receive many things that are a great support for the whole family. I have also been blessed with Bible classes and delicious lunches and my favorite one is fried chicken. I am in good health, and I am 13 years old now. I am in 7th grade this year, and my schedule is from 1:00 to 5:00 in the afternoon. I like watching TV on weekends. I end my letter wishing the best for your family and you.
Hugs and kisses
Maydelin Brizayda Lopez Ordonez
