It is a pleasure to greet you through this means. I am Alex Alberto, and I am writing this letter to tell you how I am. I am 11 years old, and I am healthy. I am repeating 2nd grade again this year, and I am studying in the morning. I help to shepherd our sheep on weekends. I have been blessed in a great way at the feeding program, and there, my favorite dish is fried chicken. The Christmas celebration is one of my favorite activities at the program, especially the special lunch because we receive French fries. I would like to ask for your prayers for my whole family.  

My father works in a grocery store in Guatemala City, so he comes home every two or three months. He keeps in touch with us and sends money for our needs. My mother works as a weaver, and she also takes time to do the household chores. We raise hens, sheep and one pig for selling, and we grow corn and black beans for our consumption. We are a family who believes in God, and we attend the Catholic Church. The LW Evangelism team has shared God’s Word, and we are now assured of our Salvation. I tell you that my mother helped me to give this information to an Evangelism teacher. I wish you the best.  

Kisses and hugs 

Alex Alberto Garcia Calachij
