It is a great pleasure to say hello to you through this letter. This is Eduardo Sinibaldi Zacarias Pastor, and I am 12 years old. How are you doing? I hope everything is running well in your life. Let me tell you that I am doing well at school as a second grader. I study on the morning shift. My family and I have hens and goats at home to sell. What I like the most is shepherding the goats alongside my mom on weekends. By the grace of the Lord, my whole family and I are in good health. My father digs river sand to generate an income and support our family economically. My mom keeps busy doing the housework and looking after our animals. Luckily, we have enough space to grow and harvest corn and beans at home; we use them for our consumption.  

My family and I have been members of Jesus the Good Shepherd Christian Church for many years. My mom is sure about her salvation because she welcomed the Lord as her Savior a long time ago. Therefore, a teacher of the LW evangelism team congratulated and encouraged her to continue working for the kingdom of Heaven. I want to use this opportunity to tell you that LW-Adopt A Child has been a great help in my community. I can get medicine for free at the LW clinics. I like all the food prepared by the staff at the feeding program, but my favorite is fried chicken. Besides that, I enjoy celebrating Christmas there because of the nice choreographies, performed by the staff and collaborators. I will leave you now, but I ask you to pray for health and provision for my family. In advance, thank you so much! 

Best wishes,  

Eduardo Sinibaldi Zacarias Pastor
