My Story

I greet you in the name of Jesus hoping you are doing well! My name is Wendy Marisol Garcia Calachij. I am 12 years old. We are attending Catholic Church and we like to participate in all the activities that our church organizes. I am sure of my salvation in God. My father works as a day laborer, but he does not help us very economically much since he drinks alcohol. He spends the money with a friend. So, my mother struggles for my siblings and me; she goes to sell homemade ice cream on the street and outside the church on days of service.

Moreover, she raises hens, sheep and cows for selling to get income. I am happy to say that my family and I are in good health.

I am a fourth-grade student. Glendy is my friend and we like to attend the feeding program. I like to spend time with my mom; we prepare the homemade ice cream and go to sell together. For me, it has been hard to see my mom struggling to supply our needs, but it is a good opportunity to help her. During this time, we have seen God´s faithfulness and provision in our lives. Jesus is my savior. I would like you to know that I shared this information with an evangelism teacher to update you about me. Thank you for stopping and reading about me today. Every kind of blessing over you!

Lots of love,

Wendy Marisol Garcia Calachij
