My Story

I am glad to say hello to you through this letter. My name is Anyi and I hope everything is running well in your life. Let me tell you that I live with my parents and two brothers. We do not attend church at the moment. I am grateful to LW because the staff has shared the gospel with me. It has helped me to learn a little bit about the Almighty and understand my neighbor. My father’s name is Walter Vinicio Lopez and he is 34 years old. He makes a living as a mason. To get extra income, my mother works by cleaning houses. Her name is Floridalma Perez and she is 38 years old. As for health, I want you to know that we are doing well. We have one lovely cat and one playful dog at home.

As you know, I am in the last year of my training in drawing. I will graduate this year if God is willing. I am glad to receive face-to-face classes instead of online because it helps me to feel active. Besides that, I do not feel depressed anymore. My parents do their best for my brothers and me, but it is difficult for them to cover the school supplies that each one needs. I have many dreams. The biggest one is to make a living as an engineer. My favorite season is the rainy season because the weather is warm; if it is raining, I take advantage of resting. I love drinking coconut water. I would love to learn new languages like French and English. I hope to accomplish it someday. There are many fun things that I can do to celebrate my birthday, but the loveliest one is spending time with my family. I am seventeen years old. This is all for now about my life. Before saying goodbye, I want you to know that my oldest sister and I gave all this information to an AAC member to update you. See you later!

Special regards,

Anyi Yoana Lopez Perez
