My Story

Hello! How are you? I hope you are doing well wherever you are. I am Emilio David, and I am writing you to tell you a little about me. I am fine and so is my whole family. I am 11 years old, and I am in 3^rd grade this year. I study in the morning, and I help my mother with the household chores on weekends. My father goes to work in Guatemala City for three months in order to cover our needs; there, he carries heavy packages for others from one place to another. My mother works hard at home and looks after our domestic animals. We raise hens for selling and eating, and we also grow corn for our consumption.

I have been blessed with lunches and medicine at the feeding program, and my favorite dish there is fried chicken. The program’s Christmas celebration is beautiful, and I enjoy it because of the presents and dramas. My family and I still attend Prince of Peace Church, and LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to continue seeking God. My mother helped me with this letter, and I want to close it asking you to pray for my family and my studies. I say goodbye to you for now.

Cordially yours

Emilio David Calachij Luis
