My Story

Hello! This is Edgar Orlando Gomez Coyan, and I greet you with much love. I am writing this letter to tell you how my family and I are doing. My father’s name is Jose, and he is 36 years old. He is in good health, and he waters the crops in a vegetable farm. My mother’s name is Norma, and she is 35 years old. She is in good health, and she works as a maid. We are not attending church, so LW Evangelism team shared the gospel with us and invited us to their church called Liberty. We are a humble family, and our needs are groceries. We have dogs and cats as pets. We grow corn on my grandfather’s land, and it is located in our town.

Now, I am going to tell you about me. I am 9 years old, and I am healthy. I am in 1^st grade this year, and I prefer to attend school in person because the teacher explains to us better. It has been difficult for my parents to support me with my studies because they have other expenses. I would like to work as a teacher in Living Water in the future. I enjoy eating cake and going out for a walk when it is my birthday. My favorite year’s celebration is Christmas because it is a happy time. I like playing soccer with my friends, and I love drinking juices from different fruits. Living Water is very important for me because I am blessed with delicious food. I end my letter wishing you the best and hoping to hear from you soon.

All the best

Edgar Orlando Gomez Coyan
