Hello, I want to tell you a little about my family and me through this letter and I hope you are blessed when this reaches you. We attend the Catholic Church and I like to participate in the special service in which we ask God for his blessings for our seeds. My mother is assured of her salvation in Jesus and she provided this information. She was encouraged to continue seeking God by the LW teacher during the visit.
My father lives and works in the United States. As you know, he works in a restaurant and provides for our economic needs. His name is Gregorio Ordonez Mechen. He is a healthy man. My mother continues earning a living by raising and selling her domestic animals. She takes care of us and her name is Sebastiana Calachij Gomez. She always is doing her best for our family and she enjoys a good health condition.
I am Juliana Endy Melecia Calachij Gomez and I want you to know that I have only my mother`s last name because my father was in the United States when I was born and he did not legally recognize me. I am a 10-year-old healthy girl. I am studying the 5th grade at school this year, and having passed the grades has been the most important experience in my life. I felt the presence of God because he has helped me in every time. For me, Jesus is my father. I admire my grandmother because of the way that she gets ahead in everything. I have a best friend and her name is Isabela. We share delicious snacks when we get together. We have been friends for 7 years. Well, this is all for now. I hope you enjoy this information. I send you all my love!
Strong hugs,
Juliana Endy Melecia Calachij Gomez
