My Story

Hello! I feel blessed to greet you through this letter. I am Josely Maria Garcia Chitic, and I send you many kisses and hugs through this letter. I am 11 years old, and it is my pleasure to tell you that I am in fifth grade. I have worked hard every year to advance in my education. I am sure that God has given me wisdom throughout this time because I have prayed for it. I have learned to believe in Jesus because He is my friend. I love learning about him at my church. My family and I attend a Pentecostal Church. Thanksgiving services are our favorite activity.

I am grateful to the Lord for each member of my family, especially for my mother. She is a great woman who does her best to help my father with the expenses. She weaves and raises domestic animals to sell, while my father works as farmer and day laborer. I am glad because I have good friends in my village. My best friend’s name is Alicia. I met her about two years ago. We usually go to school together. It is time to say goodbye, but I appreciate you taking the time to read my information. My mother and I were glad to share it with LW. Take care of yourself!

Special regards,

Josely Maria Garcia Chitic
