Hello! How are you? I hope you are doing well wherever you are. My name is Celia Oralia, and I am 9 years old. I am in 4th grade this year. My sister, Juana, is 12 years old, and she is my best friend; we like playing tag. I identify a lot with my mom because she is a loving woman and gives me good advice. For my family and me, it is sad when our hens get sick and die; it affects my family financially. We always pray to God for this situation, and we ask Him to provide us the resources to buy other ones.
I live with my parents in a place called Xejox. My father works as a farmer and day laborer while my mother weaves typical clothes and raises hens and pigs for selling. They are in good health, and they both tend our own grocery store to improve our income. As a family, we are members of a charismatic group, and I love it when there are special services for those who travel to the United States. We have put our trust in God, and we are assured in our Salvation. The LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to continue trusting in God. My mother helped me to give my information to the team. I hope you like my letter.
With much love
Celia Oralia Morente Pablo
