My Story

It is a great pleasure for me to write this letter and tell you a little about my family and me. My mom helped me to give my personal information to LW Evangelism team. Thank God, I am in good health, and I am 12 years old; my birthday was in June. I was attending school this year, and I had to repeat my 3^rd grade. I am now on vacation. I have a friend named Yuni, and we like playing soccer in our free time; we have known each other since we were little children. I have a good relationship with my grandpa, and he is the person with whom I identify most; He has been blessed in a great way, and we thank God for that.

I only have my mommy with me because my father abandoned us many years ago. We are living with my maternal grandfather, Jose Maria Benito, and he supports us financially. He works as a day laborer and grows corn for our consumption. I would like to ask for your prayers for my family since the income is not enough to cover everything we need; when the school year starts, it is difficult for my family to pay all the school expenses. My mother keeps busy doing the housework and taking care of me; thankfully, she is in good health. We are attending LW Church called Liberty, and we enjoy all the activities done there. We are secure in our Salvation. Well, this is all for now and I hope you find my letter interesting.

Sincerely yours

Juan Carlos Pol Benito
