Hello! Madrina how are you? I greet you cordially hoping you are blessed by our Lord Jesus. I hope that you enjoy reading my updated information for 2024 because I want to share with you some news about my family and me through this. First of all, I want to let you know that my family and I are grateful for every benefit that I receive from LW Ministries because it has been a great blessing for us. Thank you for the special gifts and nice letters you send me with much love. You are a very special person in my life! 

This is Ana Luis Gutierrez, and I am 9 years old. I am a healthy girl. Thankfully, I am in 2nd grade at school this year and I go to study every morning. I spend my weekend by shepherding our sheep. I accepted Jesus in my heart one year ago. LW Ministries has blessed my family and my life through the delicious meals for lunch that they serve in the Feeding Center. I like to eat the fried chicken there. I enjoyed receiving the special gift during the Christmas celebration in that place in December. 

As you know, we are attending the Prince of Peace Church. The LW teacher encouraged my mother to continue seeking God and she is grateful for the beautiful advice. My mother`s name is Santos Gutierrez Garcia. She lives with us and she is in good health. Nowadays, she works as a day laborer four days per week in order to help my father with home expenses. Moreover, she raises hens and sheep for our consumption. My father`s name is Camilo Luis de la Cruz. He lives with the family, and he provides for our financial needs by working as a farmer. In addition, he grows corn and black beans for our family consumption. Unfortunately, he suffers from gastritis, but he is not under medical treatment due to a lack of money.  I would like to ask for your prayers for his health and for my whole family. Thank you for your support and love! (My mother provided this information to the Evangelism teacher) 

Kisses and hugs, 

Ana Luis Gutierrez
