Hello! How are you? You have earned a little piece of my heart, so I wanted to write you a short letter today to tell you how it is going for me. Warm regards from, Miguel Isaias Castro Castro. I am a healthy boy and I turned 14 years old this year. I no longer attend school. Now, I work with my father in order to improve our income. I have been part of the feeding program for ten years and it is been a wonderful experience. When I am at home, I help my mother with the chores. I love the cold season best. I would like to play the piano at church.
God has been good to us and has blessed us with good health and my parents with jobs. My father struggles to support our family working as a mason. My mother is hard working too. She stays at home doing the chores, and she earns extra money weaving and selling typical blouses. My parents are grateful for the support that their children receive especially for the lunch and medicine. We are members of a Methodist Church Ebenezer. All I can do is pray that God rewards everything you do for our family and every blessing that you share with us.
With much love,
Miguel Isaias Castro Castro.
