My Story

I am greeting you from the bottom of my heart and hoping you are doing well. I want to share some news about my family and me through this. I am Ashly Yojana Toledo Jerez and I am 17 years old. I am a healthy girl. Thankfully, this year I am studying 7^th and 8^th grades at maturity school. I go to school every Sunday because it is a special study method in which I have to do two years in one. In my free time, I enjoy resting. I enjoy attending the Duenas Feeding Program because I like to pray and eat the “pollo dorado” (fried chicken) that they serve and I would like to be a volunteer for the LW Feeding Program. I want to let you know that I enjoyed the special activities during the Christmas celebration at the Feeding Center in December. I have visited the LW Dr. and she gave me some vitamins that I am taking. My family and I are grateful for every benefit that I have received.

My mother`s name is Iris Jeaneth Jerez Mixia. As you know she takes care of the family and does chores at home. My father`s name is Mateo Pascual Toledo Mateo. Currently, and he works as a farmer to provide for our needs.  We have 2 dogs as our pets. We are not attending any Church and we have not accepted Jesus in our hearts, only my father who accepted Jesus 15 years ago and he is an evangelist. The LW team shared the gospel with us and we are grateful to them. I ask for your prayers for my family's needs especially for my mother`s health because she suffers from body pains, vomiting, and lack of calcium in her bones. Thank you for reading my letter and may God bless you greatly!

Warm regards,

Ashly Yojana Toledo Jerez
