My Story

My name is Andy Leonel Medio Xulu, and I am glad to write this letter for such special people like you. I hope you are doing well. Before telling you how my family and I are doing, I want you to know that my mom helped me share all this information with LW. Fortunately, I am a healthy 13-year-old boy. I am in seventh grade. I am glad because my family is doing well. My mom keeps busy doing the chores and taking care of our family. I like going for walks and going out to eat with her. She is my best friend! My father still lives and works in the United States. He makes a living as a mason and sends us money to cover our needs. I am excited to tell you that my mom and I went to a nice beach a little far from Duenas town called Monterrico. We had a lot of fun! I am sure God took care of us during the whole trip. If you ask me who Jesus is to me, I will say He is God’s son and my friend. I have heard so much from him at my church. My mom and I like attending the services because of the worship and prayer. We also enjoy the vigils at church. It is time to say goodbye, but I hope to hear from you soon.

Every kind of blessing,

Andy Leonel Medio Xulu
