My Story

Good afternoon and blessings to you! My full name is Yamilet Jakeila Ruiz Lindo. Thank you for blessing my life through LW Adopt-A-Child. I live with my parents, maternal grandmother and one maternal aunt at home. We are in good health. My father tries to cover our needs by working as a farmer and typical day laborer. My mother is a stay-at-home-mom, but she also raises and sells hens to get some income. I help her to feed them.

 I am nine years old, and thankfully, I am in 2^nd grade this year. I prefer hot weather. I have attended the Feeding Program and the Bible classes for four years. I like to learn the verses from the Bible. My mother sent me due to the meals, medicines and Christmas gifts for free. She is thankful for the privilege to have my plate of delicious food and the special gift for Christmas that I get. My mother gave this information to the LW teacher. He also shared the gospel with her because we are not attending any church yet, but she will be thinking about it. She would like to ask for your prayers for my sister Juana because she had 2 surgeries this year, one in May and the other in July. She is recovering at the hospital still, and we do not know the date she will return to our home. Thank you for your support and love for me. I send you every kind of blessing!

Lots of love,

Yamilet Jakeila Ruiz Lindo
