My Story

It is my pleasure to greet you through this means. I am Marlon Ivan, and this is my information. I am in good health, and I am in pre-kindergarten this year. I am 5 years old, and I have been attending the feeding program for 2 years. I like attending the Bible classes, and there, we pray before going to eat. In my free time, I help to feed the chicks. I prefer summer time because I do not like to feel cold when I go to study. My family and I attend Ebenezer Methodist Church, and I like attending the Sunday school. I love the fasting services, vigils and days of prayer. I received Jesus in my heart, so I believe He will receive me into His Kingdom someday.

My parents are working hard to cover our needs. My father works as a farmer and day laborer while my mother raises hens for selling and embroiders typical napkins and blouses; all this is for selling. My mom is in good health, but my dad suffers from gastritis and is under a medical treatment; please pray for him. I tell you that my dad was part of the feeding program when he was a child, and he remembers that he received delicious lunches there. It was a great blessing for him, so it motivated him to register us at the program. My mother helped me with this letter, and we ask for your prayers for our lives and health. I say goodbye to you for now.

Kisses and hugs
