My Story

This is Irma Yolanda Chingo Cux, and I am writing this to update my 2023 information. First, I will tell you about my family. We stopped attending church, so LW Evangelism team shared the gospel with us and encouraged us to seek a church again. We are grateful for their words; they helped us a lot. We have hens at home, but we do not have crops. We are a humble family, and our greatest needs are groceries and corn. My father’s name is Felix. He is 30 years old, and he is in good health. He works as a mason helper and covers the family needs. My mother’s name is Martina. She is 27 years old, and she is in good health too. She works hard at home and raises domestic animals to sell.

Now let me tell you a little about myself. I am 9 years old, and I am healthy. I am in 2^nd grade, and I am happy to receive face-to-face classes because I learn more. It has been difficult for my father to support me with my studies because he has other expenses. I want to become a teacher when I am older. My favorite celebration is Christmas because there are delicious “tamales and ponche”. I enjoy eating fried chicken for my birthday. I prefer soccer as a sport, and I love drinking “mosh” (hot drink made from oats). I would like to learn English someday. Living Water is very important in my life, and it is a great blessing to receive delicious food through the feeding program. I hope to hear from you soon.

All the best
