I lovingly greet you in the name of Jesus, hoping you are doing well. My name is Pedro Elias Castro Us, and it is a blessing to introduce myself to you. Before starting, I want you to know that a teacher of LW and my mom helped me to write this letter. I am 8 years old and attend second grade. I receive classes in the afternoon. I have fun playing with my two sisters, especially on weekends. My family and I are deeply grateful to LW for blessing us with delicious food. I love eating fried chicken at the feeding program. Christmas parties are fantastic; I love receiving candies and gifts.
As for health, let me tell you that my whole family and I are doing well. My father makes a living as a farmer to support our family financially. He fertilizes the ground and cuts the grass at El Tampisque farm. My mom is a great housewife who looks after my siblings and me. We have attended a Christian Church for six years. Our church’s name is Jesus Comes Soon. My father accepted Jesus 14 years ago, and my mom did it 12 years ago. Although I have not done it because I am young, I am on my way. I am happy and proud of my father because he sings at church. My mom and I appreciate that a teacher of LW shared the gospel and encouraged us to continue seeking the Almighty. Thank you so much for reading my letter! I hope you found it engaging.
Cordiality yours,
Pedro Elias Castro Us
