My Story

Good morning! This is Elvia Marleny Benito Cuin and I want you to know that I feel blessed to be part of the Feeding Center for 3 years since my mother enrolled me. I like to learn about God and I also sing in the Bible classes. My parents also were affiliated children in the Project, and they remember the days when they attended because they got up early and helped their parents with some chores before going to the Program. Now, they are grateful for every blessing I get.

I am in fourth grade and I am ten years old. I like to help my mother to sweep the floors. I prefer cold weather. I love to attend the Sunday School from my church. As a family, we attend the Christian Church, and we like to receive visits from our leaders. We are secure to go to heaven someday because we have Jesus in our hearts. The LW teacher prayed for my family and encouraged my mother to continue trusting in God. She shared this information during the visit.

I live with my parents, siblings, grandparents, uncles and cousins at home. Thankfully, my relatives share the expenses with my parents. My mother dedicates her time to the family and household duties. Sometimes, she earns a living as a day laborer when people call her to work while my father is working as a farmer. In addition, he travels to the coast from November to March to cut sugar cane during the harvest.  By the grace of God, my parents and whole family are in good health. This was my updated information and I hope you are doing well when my letter reaches you. Have a nice day!

Yours truly,

Elvia Marleny Benito Cuin
