My Story

In this beautiful day, I am happy because God gives me the opportunity to tell you about my family and myself through my little story. My family and I are members of Prince of Peace Christian Church and we like the thanksgiving service for our crops. My mother helped LW team to collect this information and she is assured of her salvation in Jesus. They encouraged her to continue following in God`s path.

My life has been affected because I am repeating the 1st grade at school. I was so sad when I saw that my classmates passed the grade. However, God is always with me because I feel his presence and I know that he will help me to achieve my goals this year. My mother always is giving me good advice and I admire her. I have two best friends and their names are Henry and Adan. They play soccer with me and we have been friends for many years. I am a healthy eight yeas old boy and my name is William Anderson Garcia de Leon.

Unfortunately, my mother is suffering from a hernia in her lower belly. She is taking some pills to calm the pain, but she needs a surgery and does not have enough money to do it. She needs your prayers. I want to tell you that in spite of her disease she continues raising her hens and pigs to sell. Moreover, she does the housework and she grows radishes to sell and get some extra income. Her name is Lucia de Leon and my father`s name is Arturo Garcia. He earns a living by working as a farmer and day laborer. In addition, he travels to the coast to cut sugar cane every 6 months. My father is doing fine and both of my parents are hardworking people and always are doing their best for our well-being. Thank you for your attention and I hope you like to read my news. I send you all my love!

In Jesus’ name,

William Anderson Garcia de Leon
