I always remember my life in Ecuador, mostly my family. I grew up in a large family with many siblings. We are six sisters an four brothers, I'm number 8. Luckily we're all alive including my father and mother.

My parents are very religious people with strong beliefs in God. That is one of the reasons I think they sent me and my siblings to a Catholic School. It has always been very affordable in my native country, which is not the same comparison to the U.S which is more expensive.

One of the things that comes to my memory of my childhood years is when I graduated from High School I received an honor mention for having been at the same school from kindergarten until senior High School, 13 years on the road. It was a very rewarding experience . I give credit to my parents and their effort.

Nowadays, I'm a grown woman with many years of marriage and three kids. I feel very fortunate for all the knowledge that I have about God, which helps me face all the problems that I have as an adult. He is my strength that keeps me looking straight forward, even in the toughest times of my life.

I always turn my eyes to him, and pray with faith, when I need his help or even if I don't need it. His magnificent powers always light my road and show me the correct way. God is the first person in my life, he is my friend, he never abandons me when, I need him the most. He will always be there for me.
