My Story

Hello! I am Azul Anahi, and I am writing this letter to tell you a little about my life. I hope you find it interesting. I am in good health, and I am 14 years old. I am in 8^th grade this year. I have a friend named Maryori, and we like talking and walking around our school; we have been friends for 4 years. I identify a lot with my mother, and I have a good relationship with her. I spend good moments with my family for Christmas because we prepare “tamales” together. I can feel God’s presence in those moments, and I always ask Him to take care of us.

My parents are responsible people, and they do their best to cover our needs. My father works as a chef in a restaurant in Antigua Guatemala village. My mother is a housewife, so she dedicates all her time to my siblings and me. Thankfully, my parents are both in good health. As a family, we are attending the Catholic Church, and we enjoy all the masses. We are happy to serve God at church. For me, Jesus is my friend and a connection to heaven. I end this letter hoping you find it interesting. Please receive my best wishes.

Sincerely yours

Azul Anahi Garcia Lucas
