My Story

Hello! This is Cristina Micaela, and I want to share with you a little about my family and me. I am a healthy girl, and I already turned 16 in April. I attended 6^th grade this year, and classes are over so I am now on vacation. I worked in a tortillas business in Guatemala City for two months, and I could help my family financially. One of my dreams is to find a stable job in order to support my loved ones. I am sure God will help me with it. I have heard about Jesus, and for me, He is my protector. Bernaldo is one of my siblings, and I have a good relationship with him; I like sharing time with him.

I identify a lot with my mom because she is always attentive to the family. She works very hard at home and raises hens for selling. My father is our main supporter, and he works as a farmer and day laborer. Thankfully, they are both in good health. We live in a village called Pasojoc I. As a family, we are attending King of the Centuries Church, and we love it when there are thanksgiving services for the harvest. I would like to ask for your prayers for us since we are a needy family; I thank you in advance for it. My mom helped me with this information, and I hope you find it interesting.

Sincerely yours

Cristina Micaela Jimon de la Cruz
