My Story

Hello! Blessings to you in this wonderful day! This is Edgar Alexander and I feel so happy to tell you that my whole family and I are doing well. We continue seeking God in the Catholic Church and we like to worship him. We are secure to go to heaven someday because Jesus lives in our hearts. Thankfully, everything at home goes well, and my parents continue providing for our needs. My brother Felix also is working as a farmer to contribute to the home expenses. At the moment, my father continues working as a farmer and day laborer, and he also travels to the coast to pick coffee beans from November to February. My mother raises and sells hens to get some income. Moreover, she dedicates her time to the family and household duties. Thankfully, they are in good health.

I help my father to look after his crops. I am nine years old, and unfortunately, I am repeating the second grade this year. My favorite weather is cold. I love music, so I would like to be part of the music band from my church and serve God. I have attended the Feeding Program for 5 years, and my mother also attended in the past. She registered me due to her nice experience and because many children are blessed with benefits for free. My mother has good memories about the Christmas gifts for the season in the Project. She provided all this information to the LW teacher. I hope you enjoy reading it. Blessings to you!

Lots of love,

Edgar Alexander Gutierrez Gutierrez
