Hello! How are you? My name is Manuel, and I want to tell you a little about my family and me through this letter. Thank God, I am fine and healthy. I am 8 years old, and I have a twin brother named Maximiliano. I was sad because I had to repeat 1st grade this year. Classes are already over, and I hope to pass my grade this time. I am praying that God helps me with it. I have a friend named Candelaria, and I met her at school; we like playing soccer in our free time. I have learned about Jesus, and I am sure to say that He is God’s son.
My father works as a farmer and grows corn to support the family. On the other hand, my mother works hard at home and takes care of us; she helped me with this letter. Thankfully, my parents are both in good health. I have a good communication with my parents, so I identify a lot with them. We believe in God, and we serve Him at Prince of Peace Church. We love all the activities done there but our favorite ones are the thanksgiving services. LW Evangelism team came to visit us to collect my information for you, and they took the opportunity to share encouraging words with us. I close my letter wishing you the best and hoping to have news from you soon.
Yours truly
Manuel Toj Morente
