My Story

First, thank you so much for taking the time to read my information. My name is Ostin, and it is a blessing to greet you through this letter. I want you to know that my family and I attend the Quadrangular Church. We usually have services on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. We are doing our best to increase our love and faith. My father, Rogelio Shoc, is 36 years old. He is a healthy carpenter who strives a lot for our family. My mother also works hard on a flower farm to help with the expenses at home. Her name is Maria Jacinto. She is 30 years old, and her health is in good condition. About me, let me tell you that I am a healthy boy. I am ten years old and my biggest dream is to become a lawyer. Besides that, I also would like to learn how to speak English. I am in third grade again and I prefer to receive face-to-face classes. It helps me to focus my attention and the teacher’s explanations are better. Christmas is my favorite time because it means vacation. I love drinking coffee and playing basketball. My birthday was in March. I love spending it with my family. They usually invite our relatives to celebrate my day by eating a delicious dinner and cake. To end this letter, I want you to know that a teacher of the evangelism team spoke with my brother Julio to collect my last news for you. He also shared the gospel and encouraged our family through him to go ahead. The feeding program is an important project because it has helped us with food and vitamins. I say goodbye to you for now, but I want to encourage you to continue blessing many children like me. I am sure the Lord will reward you greatly for it.

With many blessings for you,

Ostin Rogelio Shoc Jacinto
