It is a pleasure to greet you through this letter. My full name is Abner Eleazar Gutierrez Aba, and I am 14 years old. I hope everything is running well in your life. Fortunately, I am in good health and attend school. I am in seventh grade and study on the morning shift. As for my favorite activities, let me tell you that I like going to the field and playing soccer with my friends on weekends. My favorite food is Bolognese spaghetti. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I want to open my heart and tell you that my father separated from my mom about one year ago. He has a new partner now. This situation has made me feel downhearted and blue, so please pray for me.  

I am grateful to a member of the LW staff for sharing the gospel and encouraging me to trust in God. At the moment, I do not attend church but I hope to do it soon. My father is in good health and works as a messenger to survive and help me economically. Fortunately, my mom is also healthy and has a stable job as a cook at a modest restaurant. I am deeply grateful for being part of LW-Adopt A Child because my family and I have received many blessings like food. All the staff treats me with kindness and love, so I hope the Lord spills many blessings upon everybody. I say goodbye to you now, but I appreciate you taking the time to read my information. See you later! 

Special regards,  

Abner Eleazar Gutierrez Aba
