My Story

Hello! I send you many greetings in the name of Jesus. I am Brandon Miguel, and on this occasion, I want to start by telling you about my family. My father is Jose Francisco Jerez, and he is 43 years old. As you know, he traveled to the United States four years ago in order to give us a better life. He works as a mason. He keeps in touch with us and sends us money for our expenses. My mother is Lesbia Patricia Garcia, and she is 46 years old. She is in charge of our family; she also makes an effort to help my father with the expenses by working as a farmer. Thank God, they are all well. I just want to let you know how much I appreciate your support and encouragement because it has been a blessing to my life.

About me, I am Brandon Miguel Jerez Garcia. I turned 16 years old on September 9, so my mother prepared a special dinner to celebrate. This 2023, I attended 9^th grade at school. I prefer to receive classes face-to face because I am learning well. Thank God, my parents have had enough jobs to be able to pay for my school expenses. The sport that I like the most is football, so when I grow up, I would like to be a soccer player. It would be a nice experience to learn English and communicate in a language that is not my native tongue. At the moment, we do not attend any church, however, we are grateful to LW teachers because they visited us to share the gospel and encouraged us to seek God at all times. May God continue blessing each one of you.

With much love,

Brandon Miguel Jerez Garcia
