My Story

Hello! this is a blessing for me to greet you and tell you my little story. This is Rolando Gutierrez de la Cruz and I am studying the 6^th grade at school. I am a sixteen-year-old boy and my best friend`s name is Alex. He also is my cousin. We met many years ago and we spend a nice time by playing soccer in the afternoon. I trust him. I know that Jesus is the son of God. He is my provider and he came to save and heal us. Fortunately, we are attending the Prince of Peace Christian Church and we like to participate in the thanksgiving service for our first crops. My mother trusts in God and she has welcomed Jesus in her heart. She is assured of her salvation and LW team encouraged her to continue persevering at church. She also contributed to collect all this information.

My mother`s name is Estela and she does the chores at home and continues raising and selling the hens when she has a financial need. Nowadays, she is working as a day laborer for our neighbors to earn extra money and sustain us financially because my father Arnulfo is drinking alcohol and is not providing for our needs. It has been a difficult time for our family due to a lack of money, but God has been so faithful to us in spite of our situation. He always provides for our needs and we have meals at home. I would like to ask for your prayers for my father. It was a blessing to share my news and thank you for your attention. I send you a bunch of hugs!

In Jesu`s love,

Rolando Gutierrez de la Cruz
