Special greetings to all of you! This is Lesly Mileidy Luis Garcia, and I am happy to share my news with you. Thankfully, my whole family and I are all doing well. We are members of the Catholic church. We love processions because they remind us of everything that Jesus did to save us. I am so happy because He is my friend. Let me tell you that my father works hard as a mason’s helper, and my mom is dedicated to taking care of my siblings and me. I identify with her because she is a hardworking woman.
About me, I want you to know that I worked hard at school last year. I am pleased because I am in fourth grade. I love playing soccer with my friends. My best friend’s name is Francisco. I am excited because I will turn 13 years old in November. I pray that the Lord always keeps me as healthy as I am now. I will leave you now, but I appreciate you taking the time to read my letter. My mom and a member of the LW staff helped me write it for you. See you later!
Sincerely yours,
Lesly Mileidy Luis Garcia
