My Story

My name is Anibal Estuardo, and it is my pleasure to greet you through this letter. I want you to know that my oldest brother, Valentin, helped me to give all this information to a teacher of LW to update you about my latest news. So, I hope you find this letter engaging. We are grateful to him because he shared the gospel and encouraged us to look for the Almighty because we do not attend any church at the moment. I want to open my heart and tell you that my father separated from my mom some time ago. His full name is Salvador Emanuel Monroy Otzin, and he is 33 years old. He is a healthy man who makes a living as a mason and occasionally helps us economically. My mom’s name is Yasmin Hidalia Otoy Ordonez, and she is 31 years old. She is a healthy housewife who takes care of my siblings and me. The one who supports my family is my stepfather. His name is Amilcar Carias Estrada, and he is 28 years old. He is a healthy man who works in a plant nursery by fumigating the plants. As for pets, let me tell you that we only have one dog at home.

After telling you about my family, I want you to know more about me. I am a 12-year-old healthy boy, and I was in fourth grade this year. I prefer to receive face-to-face classes because I learn the lessons so much better. Unfortunately, our economic situation has not gone well. My family had trouble covering my school supplies. I would love to become a teacher and speak English. I hope to accomplish my dreams someday. My favorite season is winter because I love rainy days. I like drinking Coca-Cola and my favorite sport is soccer. When my birthday comes, I love having a delicious cake to celebrate with my family. To end this letter, I want you to know that LW is a big blessing for my family and me. I say goodbye to you for now, but I hope to hear from you soon.

Special regards,

Anibal Estuardo Monroy Otoy
