My Story

Hello and blessings to you! My full name is Melvin Sedequias Luis Gutierrez and I have been part of the Feeding Program for one year. I like to pray in the Bible classes and my father is thankful for the meals and Christmas gifts for free for my siblings and me. He sent me when he heard about the benefits for free for many children in need. He gave this information to the LW teacher.  Currently, he continues working as a typical day laborer to cover our needs, but my mother also supports him by selling the hens she raises. She is a stay-at-home-mom. I am thankful to God because my parents and I are in good health. I live with them at home.

I help to sweep and take out the trash. I love cold weather. I am ten years old and I am in third grade this year. I attend to the Prince of Peace Christian Church with my family, and we like to learn about the word of God and try to practice the gospel. If God asks us someday: Why should I allow you to enter heaven? We are assured to answer him because we already have accepted your son Jesus in our hearts and he is our savior. My father would like to ask for your prayers for health for my whole family. Thank you for blessing me. Have a nice day!

Yours truly,

Melvin Sedequias Luis Gutierrez
