My Story

It is my pleasure to greet you in this opportunity and I hope you are doing well! My name is Susana Garcia de la Cruz. I am 10 years old. At the moment, we do not attend any church. This time a LW member shared the gospel with us and invited us to attend a church, and we hope to do it soon. My biological father is not in my life because he abandoned us two years ago, and we know nothing about him. My mom is a housewife, and now, she is not working because she recently gave birth. My stepfather works as a bricklayer and he provides for our home needs. I am so happy because my loved ones and I are in good health.

Unfortunately, I did not pass my grade last year, and I felt embarrassed to see my classmates go to the next grade. I thank God for the opportunity to attend the school this year; I am repeating 2^nd grade. Now, I am doing my homework and I hope that with God´s help I can pass my grade. Darvin has been my friend for many years and we like to play football. My mother and I share the same character; we are a bit angry. I recognize Jesus is my savior who came to forgive my sins. I would like you to know that my mom, Maria, shared this information with an evangelism teacher to update you about me. I appreciate you taking the time to read my letter. May God bless you wherever you are!

A bunch of hugs,

Susana Garcia de la Cruz
