My Story

I greet you in Jesus’ name hoping you are doing well. I am Maria Roxanna, and I want to share a little about me. I am healthy, and I am 14 years old. I no longer attend school, so I stay at home helping my mother to look after the family and wash clothes. I have a friend, and her name is Maria Morente. I met her 5 years ago, and we attend the feeding program together. For me, Jesus is my friend and confidant. As a family, we are attending the Catholic Church, and we enjoy all the masses. We are secure in our Salvation, and LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to always trust in God.

I tell you that, at the middle of the year, my mother had an accident and hurt her left foot; she fractured it. She went to the hospital where she was treated. Thank God, she is getting better. This situation was very difficult for me because I do not like to see my mother suffering. I am praying for her, and I know God will heal her completely. I identify a lot with my mom because she always supports me in everything; she helped me with this letter. She is a housewife, and she raises hens and cows for selling. On the other hand, my father works as a day laborer to cover our needs. Well, this is all for now. May God bless you!

Sincerely yours

Maria Roxanna Coj Morente
