Hello! I am glad to greet you through this letter. My name is Ever Otoniel Garcia Garcia, and I want to update you about my life. I turned 9 years old in January. Thankfully, I am a healthy boy and attend second grade again. Now, let me tell you about my family. My mom is healthy and works hard doing the chores. She also raises chickens to sell. We were so sad when my father had to travel to the United States. However, God has been comforting our hearts. My father is often in touch with us and sends us money. I know he is healthy and continues working in the construction area. If you ask me who Jesus is to me, I will say He is my friend. I love my oldest sister because she takes me for walks. My best friend’s name is Jimmy Gutierrez, and I met him about two years ago. We enjoy playing soccer when we are together. To end this letter, let me tell you that a member of the LW staff encouraged me to continue attending church with my family. We are members of a Christian church called Prince of Peace. The First Fruit presentation service is our favorite activity at church. Until next time!
Warm hugs,
Ever Otoniel Garcia Garcia
