My Story

My name is Zoila, and I am writing these few lines to tell you about my life and family. Let’s start with my parents. Thankfully, they are in good health, and they work hard to cover our needs. My father works as a farmer and day laborer while my mother works as a weaver and raises hens, cows and sheep for selling. My family and I are attending church, and I enjoy learning about God’s Word and the praise time. We accepted Jesus in our hearts, so we are secure that we will enter God’s Kingdom someday. LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to continue walking in God’s Way.

I only passed my 6^th grade, and I no longer attend school due to our low resources. I am in good health, and I am 18 years old. I stay at home and help my mom with the chores. I love the cold weather because I can put on my warm clothes. I have been part of the feeding program for 8 years, and I have learned Bible verses at the Bible classes. I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for all the support I have received at the program; the delicious lunches have been a great blessing for me. This is all for now.

Sincerely yours

Zoila Chajal Benito
