My Story

This is Madelin Maite Roman Lorenzana, and I am so happy to write this letter for you. I want you to know that my family and I went to the beach called Puerto San Jose for the first time, a while ago. It was wonderful and lovely to spend time with my family there. I am sure that God took care of us during the trip until we returned home. Luckily, I am a healthy 10-year-old girl. I am in second grade this year. My best friend’s name is Sayli. I met her at school about two years ago. We like eating a snack during recess.

Now, I want to tell you about my family. Thankfully, everybody is healthy. I identify with my grandfather because he loves me as much as I love him. My oldest sister and I are under my grandparents’ care while my mom works. She is single and works in the customer service area of a store. I know she has cried and prayed to overcome difficult situations, so I kindly ask you to pray for her. We are faithful members of a Christian Church called God Is Good. My mom likes serving the Almighty by cleaning the church alongside other sisters. It is time to say goodbye, but I hope you liked my information. My mom and I were glad to share it with LW just for you.

With much love,

Madelin Maite Roman Lorenzana
