Hello! I am Pablo David Castellanos Santizo, and I feel blessed to write this letter to you. I want to share with you that my family and I have had lovely moments, like the time we went to the most famous basilica in our country, called Esquipulas. Another exciting experience I have had was meeting you last year. I remember that you bought me a soccer ball, a backpack, shoes, and clothes. That was very kind of you, and I appreciate it so much. May God continue blessing you for all you do for me! I am sure that God’s presence has always been with me because He has allowed me to live these experiences.  

My mom has taught me that Jesus is someone very important. He is the provider of life, love, and peace. As a catholic family, we like attending Mass and many other religious activities. I am a healthy 11-year-old boy and attend school as a fifth grader. Thankfully, my whole family is also doing well. I identify with Gilberto because we both love soccer. We also have great moments with our baby sister, whom we love so much. My mom keeps busy doing the chores and taking care of us while my father works. He still makes a living as a driver in public transportation. This is all for now, but I want you to know that my mom and I were glad to share all this information with LW just for you. See you later! 

With much love,  

Pablo David Castellanos Santizo
