I greet you in Jesus’ name, and I send you my best wishes. I am Bacilio, and I am happy to be part of your life. I tell you that my mom is pregnant and I will have another sibling soon. We live far away from the feeding program, but it is a great blessing to be part of it. I love eating fried chicken there, and the lunches have been a great support for my parents and me. I enjoy the Christmas celebration because I receive a present at the program. I am 14 years old, and I am not attending school because I do not want to. I am now working in our own crops.
I want to ask for your prayers for my family’s health, especially for my mother. She works hard at home and takes care of my siblings and me; she raises hens at home. My father now works as a moto-taxi driver, and he does his best for the family. They grow corn and black beans for our consumption. We believe in God, and we are now members of Prince of Peace Church. We live in a village called Agua Caliente. I end my letter telling you that my oldest sister, Maria, helped me to give this information to the Evangelism team, and I hope you find it interesting.
Cordially yours
Bacilio Matias Ralios
