My Story

I hope you are having a blessed day, and I trust our Lord is taking care of you! Praise the Lord my family and I attend Pentecostal Prince of Peace Church; we go on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. We appreciate so much the encouraging words that LW staff gave us this time. Thankfully, I am healthy and so is my family. My mother is Lilia Maria Lucas Osorio, and she is 28 years old. She does the housework and watches after my siblings and me. My father is Miguel Angel Vicente Simaj, and he is 29 years old. He works as a shoemaker and in that way, he can supply our needs.

I am Frankli Brayan Vicente Lucas, and I am 8 years old. I am a second-grade student; I receive classes at school, and I like to learn many things. My parents are striving to support me at school and there are times when my father does not have enough resources and he cannot supply all the expenses. When I grow up, I would like to be a policeman because I like that profession. Let me tell you, the language that catches my attention is English, so I want to learn it. I enjoy the winter; I love playing in the rain. I like to play football in my free time; it is the sport I like the most. I like sodas, especially Coca-Cola which is my favorite one. On my birthday, my family prepares a special dinner; they love me so much. I am so happy to be part of the feeding program and receive support; it means great support for me and so is my parents. For me, the top priorities are groceries. I will leave you for now, but I hope to receive news from you very soon. Every blessing to you!

Best wishes,

Frankli Brayan Vicente Lucas
