My Story

I am glad for the opportunity to greet you and send you my updated information. This is Brittany Mishel Arias Ramirez and we are a Christian family that is attending the Holocaust for the King of Kings Church. My parents are deacons and my sister and I are enrolled in the dance group. LW team encouraged my mother to continue seeking and trusting in God and she helped to collect this information. We are a needy family, and sometimes, we do not have anything to eat, but we are thankful with God all the time. My mother`s name is Delfina Mictalia Ramirez Cuin. Currently, she works cleaning a house twice a week, while my father works driving a tuc-tuc (moto-taxi) in order to support us financially, but sometimes the money that he earns is not enough to cover every need. His name is Wilie Arias Lucero. Thankfully, my father is in good health, but my mother is suffering from diabetes. By the grace of God, she is under medical treatment in the public health center, and she takes Metformin.

I am studying the 8^th grade at school and I am a healthy fourteen year old teenager in spite of the sight problems that I suffer. I feel the presence of God in my life when he provides for our financial needs. He never let us alone. He shows his power upon our lives all the time. Jesus is the son of God and he is my savior. My mother teaches me to struggle every day to reach my goals and I admire her. My best friend is Madelyn and we like to talk and visit the sports fields together. Thank you for your attention and I hope you like my letter. I send you my best wishes!

Warm regards,

Brittany Mishel Arias Ramirez
