Hello! This is a blessed day to greet you, and I pray that you and yours are doing fine.  I hope you enjoy reading my updated information for 2024 because I want to share with you some news about my family and me through this. First of all, I want to let you know that my family and I are grateful for every benefit that I receive from LW Ministries.  

This is Marvin Estuardo Gomez Simaj and I am 13 years old. I am a healthy boy and I am in 6st grade at school this year. I go to study in the mornings and I spend my weekend looking after our crops. LW Ministries has blessed my family and my life through the delicious meals for lunch like the Chow Mein that they serve in the Feeding Center and with medicines in the medical clinic. I enjoyed the gift during the Christmas celebration in that place in December. 

As a family, we continue attending the Catholic Church. The LW teacher encouraged my mother to continue seeking God during the visit and she is grateful for the beautiful words. She accepted Jesus in her heart six years ago. Her name is Petrona Simaj Garcia. She is a healthy woman and she is a housewife. Currently, she raises hens to sell and get some income. My father`s name is Domingo Gomez De La Cruz and he works tending his own grocery store in Santa Cruz del Quiche town. He visits us every month and he stays here only one week and then returns to his job in order to support us financially. Moreover, he grows corn for our family consumption. I would like to ask for your prayers for my whole family. May God bless you! (My mother provided this information to the Evangelism teacher) 

Lots of love, 

Marvin Estuardo Gomez Simaj
