One Woman's Journey
By Alicia Ceballos
I came to Mercy Education
Project in November. I read the newsletter and it attracted my attention. I
only completed sixth grade in school and I know that with my GED, I will
have the opportunity to advance.
Linda (Carrier) and
Jackie (Thompson) are volunteers for the Women's Program. They are the most
loving  person that I have met. They
are always ready to help. Linda helps us individually with the subjects we
don't understand. She is a very patiend and happy person. Jackie works with
us as a group in the "Woman to woman." meetings. I feel that it
is good for my self esteem. It helps us to understand how to handle
situations. She listens to us and enjoys being with us. She also helps with
our studies.
Mercy Education
Project impacts my life in several ways. I am happy to say that I feel good
with my classes because they are instructed so that I can learn. I have
learned so much at MEP that my self esteem has improved. I have met new
friends and it's a great feeling to work with them. I am so pleased with
what it offers me, and I appreciate all the things that people at MEP do to
help me obtain my education. Getting my GED is important to me and I will
continue to come to class until I complete it. It will allow me to get a
job and have the opportunity to go to college. I will also set an example
for my children and encourage them to finish high school and get a good
education.
