Child
I greet you in Jesus’ name hoping you are doing well wherever you are. My name is Mayra Alejandra, and I am writing these lines to tell you a little about my life. I am in good health, and I am 18 years old. I have learning problems and a slight mental
retardation. My mother took me to the psycologist for one year, and thank God, it helped me; my mother could see a progress and change in me. I continue studying, and I am attending 3rd grade for the fourth time this year. Three years ago, I met Abigail, and she has been my friend since that time. We talk about our personal things and go to the park. I identify a lot with my mom because she is always with me.
I tell you that I went to the zoo with my family, and I liked everything. I am sure God provided us with the resources to make this trip possible. I could feel His presence in my life. I have heard about Jesus, and I know that He is God’s son. As a family, we are attending Restauration Church, and we love the family meetings held on Wednesdays. LW Evangelism team collected this information for my letter, and they took advantage of it to pray for us and give us encouraging words. Thankfully, my parents are both in good health. My father works as a mason while my mother works as a cook. They do their best to cover my needs. My mom helped me with this letter, and I hope you find it interesting.
Sincerely yours
Mayra Alejandra Lorenzana Aguilar
