My Story

My name is Elvira, and I greet you with much love. This is my update information, and I hope you find it interesting. I am attending school, and I am repeating 4^th grade this year. I am in good health, and in my free time, I help to feed the pigs. I love the cold weather because it is more refreshing to walk. I am 11 years old, and I have been attending the feeding program for about 5 years. I tell you that my mother was part of the program when she was younger, and she loved the discipleship classes. It was a good experience for her, so she wanted us to enjoy that blessing too.

My family and I are Christians, and our church’s name is King of the Centuries. To learn about God’s Word is what motivates me to attend church. I am God’s child and I have received Him in my heart, so I believe I will enter His Kingdom someday. My mom helped me with this letter, and she took advantage of this to ask for your prayers for my siblings and me so that we always seek God. Thank God, my parents are in good health. My father works as a farmer and day laborer while my mother raises and sells hens, pigs and sheep. I say goodbye to you for now.

With much love

Elvira Jimon de la Cruz
