I greet you with much love hoping you are fine together with your loved ones. I am writing you this letter to tell you a little about me. I want to start it by asking you to pray for my grandfather because he is not good health. He suffers from diabetes, and it is affecting his sight. For this reason, he is no longer working, and he has not visited a doctor due to our low resources. Now, one of my uncles is supporting us financially; he is in the United States. My grandmother always takes care of us, and she stays at home doing the chores and looking after her hens; she sells them to earn some money.
My family and I are members of a charismatic group, and we love it when there is a special service for those brethren who travel to the United States. We are secure in our Salvation, and LW Evangelism team has encouraged us to continue trusting in God. I am in 6th grade this year, and I am 12 years old. I tell you that I got sick from chickenpox some time ago, and I felt a little sad because I could not attend school for some days. I have one friend named Moises, and we like playing soccer. God has been with us, and He always keeps us safe and heals us from every health issue. My grandma helped me to write this letter. I identify a lot with her because she is a hardworking and loving woman. I say goodbye to you for now hoping to have news from you soon.
Yours truly
Pedro Israel Batz Coj
