My Story

Hello! It is such a great blessing to greet you through this letter. Before sharing my updated information with you, I want you to know that I am deeply grateful to you for choosing me as your sponsored child. I am Jessica Petronila Angelica Ajqui Ajqui, and I am a healthy 12-year-old girl. I am doing my best to have success at school, but I have had a little trouble learning. I am in fourth grade again. Please pray for me so I can improve my skills and do my homework easily. I love going for walks alongside my best friend, Keyla Tzoy. I met her about seven years ago. About my family, let me tell you that my father lives with us and works in a blacksmith shop. However, he does not support our family because he still has problems with alcohol, unfortunately. My mother is a hardworking woman and does her best for our family, so I admire her a lot. She is a housewife and sells chickens raised by her at home.

As you know, she has suffered from health issues. Fortunately, she already has medicine to treat the gallbladder. To end this letter, let me tell you that we stopped attending church a while ago. Therefore, a member of the LW staff shared the gospel and encouraged us to seek the Lord again. I hope we can accept God’s calling soon. Sending you so much love! 

In Jesus’ name,

Jessica Petronila Angelica Ajqui Ajqui
