Birth family update

Lilian Bernardina Yac López

A la familia se le lee la carta y contesta:

Estamos bien de salud, esperamos que Ustedes también y que Dios les bendiga en cada momento de su vida.

Gracias por la Educación de Lily va progresando y está terminando otro año escolar; Ojalá se haga realidad sus sueños en asistir a una Universidad y que Dios le de sabiduría para elegir lo que quiere hacer después del Colegio.

Sus actividades físicas son admirables y soy feliz porque la niña tiene la oportunidad de practicarlas y el acompañamiento de Ustedes como Padres desde que comenzó su gusto por estos deportes.

En mi círculo de conocidos no es muy común que los jóvenes manejen un carro pero entiendo que es mejor comenzar a manejar desde joven y tener una educación vial.

Espero que a Lily le vaya bien en el Viaje de Alaska y que sea una buena experiencia, convivencia, conocimiento y aprendizaje.

Seguimos predicando y apoyando en las Comunidades de Alta Verapaz, viajamos cuando nuestra Iglesia nos pide hacer esa misión.

 Lily, Manuel y Susana por ahora están en la Capital, dedicados a su Iglesia.

La familia completó sus vacunas del Covid 19.

Hace más de 4 años la familia NO visita Santo Tomás la Unión, Suchitepéquez por falta de dinero.

Lily dice: Extraño mi Pueblo supongo que ha cambiado mucho, quizá hay mas casas, negocios y gente joven que ya no conozco pero le doy gracias a Dios que estoy con vida, salud, una familia y que sea una integrante más de una Iglesia.

Mi familia y yo vivimos muy tranquilos, sin discusiones ni gritos ni enojos, somos felices con lo que tenemos y lo que somos.

 Lily que Dios te bendiga en cada actividad que emprendes, tienes muchas oportunidades de aprender y hacer lo que te gusta hacer.

Pon tu mayor esfuerzo, siempre adelante y piensa positivamente; Te amo y bendiciones en tu vida mi niña hermosa.

Kim, Olav y Ashton, gracias por el apoyo material, el afecto y sus buenos deseos hacia la familia. Estamos agradecidos con Ustedes deseamos su bienestar y armonía familiar, bendiciones.

I read the letter to the family and she answered:

We are healthy, and hopefully, each one of you is fine, God Bless You! Thanks for providing Lily with a great education and hope;  she feels excited about finishing another school year. Her dreams will come true if she keeps studying and fortunately, she has the chance to study in college. God will provide her wisdom to make the best decisions for her future.”

“It makes me feel happy to know she does several physical activities. It's amazing that she has the chance to practice these activities. Thanks for taking care of the girl in every moment and providing her a life full of opportunities. Among my friends, it is not common to see a young person who is able to drive. Many people think it is a better way to learn when you are  young in order to be well educated and learn properly.”

“I wish Lily the best in her travel to Alaska and that she enjoys the experience. Hopefully, she will be growing as a person and learning new things. We keep supporting some villages from Alta Verapaz. When our church requests us to do community work we feel more than glad to help others.”

Lily, Manuel, and Susana are living in Guatemala City. They love their church.

The family is already vaccinated against COVID-19.

They haven’t visited “Santo Tomas, La Union, Suchitepequez” because of the lack of money.

Lily said: “I miss the village where I am from and things might be very different nowadays. There might be more buildings, houses, businesses and people in the village. I thank God for being alive, healthy, and with a family who loves me. My family and I are feeling great living in peace. We do not complain against each other and even if our life is simple, our gratitude to God is always present.”

 Lily God bless you for being a good girl who does her best in everything. Follow your instincts, if you feel somehow unstable, work harder and make it happen. Take advantage of opportunities, be polite, have a good heart, and help if you consider the person needs it. Enjoy the chance of doing the things you love and learn during that process as much as you can.”

“Someday you will be by yourself, be an independent girl who cares for her parents and make them feel loved. Sometimes we forget that our parents are not forever and when they leave is a really hard process. Go ahead with the hard work, do not stop absorbing information and someday you will be enjoying the results of your efforts. I wish you the best, respect others and yourself please.”

“Kim, Olav, and Ashton, thanks for the support you provide us. Your kind words provide me mental peace and thanks for sharing the girl’s activities. Our family is thankful for every single effort you have done for our family. God Bless You!”
