My Story

I greet you fondly, hoping you are having a fantastic day. My name is Antony, and I hope you find this update engaging.

The church that I attend is Methodist. My family and I usually attend our services on Saturdays and Sundays. I am sure Jesus is my Savior. My brother and I appreciate the LW evangelism team because of encouraging our family to continue strengthening our faith. One of them took advantage of that moment to collect my news for you. I want to use this moment to let you know that the feeding program is a meaningful project in my community. Thanks to you and many people who contribute faithfully, my brother and I can receive delicious food. My father, Leonel De Leon, is 59 years old. He makes a living as a minibus driver to support our needs. Since my mother left our home, he has done his best for our family. Nowadays, he established a new relationship with Mrs. Rosa Natareno. She dedicates her time to doing the household chores. My mother, Mayra Garcia, is 59 years old. Thankfully, she is already in touch with us and sometimes helps us economically. She sells homemade snacks at school. As for health, nobody is sick at home, including myself.

I am seventeen years old. I want you to know I am in tenth grade. I am attending the first year of a training in computers. I prefer to receive face-to-face classes rather than online because I learn more. Even though this education level is demanding. I do some errands to make money and cover my school needs. My biggest goal is to finish school and become a professional. All the seasons of the year are pretty important and I like them, so I might not say what is my favorite. Speaking new languages catches my attention, so I hope to learn almost all of them someday. My birthday will be in December, but I will not celebrate it because I do not like parties. There are many sports, but my favorite sport is basketball. To end this letter, I want you to know that I have a lovely dog and a playful cat. I hope to tell you more about them the next time. I leave you now, but I wish you many blessings for your loved ones and you.

Cordiality yours,

Antony Leonel De Leon Garcia
