My Story

Hello! It is a pleasure to greet you and I hope you are enjoying the blessings of Jesus every day. I want to tell you a little about my family and me through this letter. I am Maritza Mariela Suar Riz and I am 13 years old. I am a healthy girl. Unfortunately, I am not studying this year due to a lack of money, but sometimes I work washing clothes for the neighbors in order to support my family with the money that I earn.  Moreover, I take care of a neighbor some weekends and she pays me. LW has blessed my family and my life through the delicious meals for lunch like the fried chicken that I love eating there. Moreover, they have given me spiritual support and medicines through the medical clinic. In addition, I enjoyed the special activities during the Christmas celebration at the Feeding Center in December. In the future, I would like to become a volunteer there because I like to help children. My family is grateful for every benefit that I have received from the Ministry.

My mother`s name is Pabla Riz Simaj. She lives with us. She accepted Jesus in her heart many years ago. She is a housewife and she raises hens and turkeys for our family consumption. As you know, she suffers from diabetes, she visited the doctor and she was taking medicines, but at the moment, she cannot buy the medicines because they are expensive. I ask for your prayers for her health. My father`s name is Sebastian Suar Chingo. He lives with us. He is in good health and he accepted Jesus in his heart many years ago. He provides for our economic needs by working as a farmer and day laborer. Moreover, he grows corn for us. As a family we continue attending the Prince of Peace Church. The LW team shared the gospel with my older sister during the visit and we are grateful for their words. I hope you like to read my letter. May God bless you greatly!

Warm regards,
