My Story

Hello! It is a pleasure to greet you and I hope you are doing fine alongside your family. I want to share some news about my family and me. My name is Dulce Gabriela Martinez Arias and I am 15 years old. Thank God, we are attending the Jehova`s Garden Church every Tuesday, and Sunday. This year, I am in the 8^th grade at school. I am receiving face-to-face classes every day. I love this study method because I learn a lot about the topics. My mother strives to support my sister and me at school. Currently, school fees are expensive sometimes it is difficult to cover all expenses. I speak Spanish, but I would like to learn the Korean language; I think this is very interesting. In the future, I want to become a doctor. Summer is my favorite season of the year because I like the warm weather and I rest. My favorite beverage is “jugo de Jamaica” (hibiscus juice). I want to let you know that I celebrate my birthday and spending the day with my family. Thank God my family and I are in good health.

My mother`s name is Concepcion de Maria Martinez. She is 47 years old. At the moment, she continues cleaning houses, washing and ironing clothes for others in order to support us with home expenses due to the absence of my father.  As you know, he abandoned us some years ago. As a humble family, our current needs are groceries, clothes, and shoes. We are grateful to Living Water because we have been blessed for instance with the meals, medical and dental, and spiritual support. I want to say thank you for the Christmas gifts that you sent to me at the end of the year. I hope you like to read my letter.  May God bless you!

Huge hugs,

Dulce Gabriela Martinez Arias
