My Story

This is Milton, and I am delighted to share my last news with you through this letter. I hope you are doing well. My family and I attend Liberty Church sometimes. Therefore, we were encouraged by the evangelism team to persevere and strengthen our faith. They shared the gospel with my mother and collected this information for you. This project has really supported us, so we are grateful for it. My mother, Eluvia Paz, is 36 years old. She works hard as a cook in a restaurant in Antigua to cover the necessities of our family. Luckily, she is in good health and so is the rest of my family. This year, I am attending seventh grade again and classes are face-to-face. I am glad because I am learning so much more thanks to this method.

Since my father abandoned us, my mother has worked hard for our family. However, her job is unstable, so it is difficult for her to cover my school expenses. My biggest dream is to work as a chef and speak English to help her economically. The summer season is the most enjoyable because I like going to the beach. My favorite beverage is Pepsi, and I like playing soccer. I had my seventeenth birthday in February. Thankfully, I am healthy. What I loved the most was spending good moments with my family to celebrate. I have two lovely dogs at home. Do you have pets? This is all for now, but I send you many kisses and hugs. See you later!

Cordiality yours,

Milton Alberto Lopez Paz
