Hello! It is wonderful to know you are reading my information. I hope you find it engaging. My name is Brandon Leonel Mencho Solares, and I am 9 years old. Fortunately, I am in good health. I am in third grade and attend school on the afternoon shift. I love soccer! So, I take advantage of weekends to practice that sport with my friends. Now, let me tell you a little about my family. My mom still works in the quality control area in a textile factory. Luckily, she is doing well. As for my father, let me tell you that he is also doing well, thanks to the treatment that he takes to control his diabetes. People know he is a good tailor, so they look to him to repair clothes or to make new clothes. We have two cats and one dog at home as pets. My mom has taken my brother and me to a Christian Church for many years. She has faithfully gone there since she was 8 years old.  

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I want you to know that LW-Adopt A Child has blessed my family and me with food. I cannot tell you what my favorite dish is because I like them all. Christmastime is one of my favorite celebrations because of gifts. I appreciate the LW staff and missionaries because they give me a special gift every year. To end this letter, I want you to know that a teacher of the LW evangelism team shared the gospel with my mom and me while he collected all this information for you. We appreciate that he took the time to talk with us about Jesus. See you later! 

Warm hugs,  

Brandon Leonel Mencho Solares
