My Story

Hello! My name is Erick Neimar, and this is my information. I only live with my mother and siblings since my father is abroad. My mom works as a weaver and raises hens for selling; she does her best to help with the income. My father lives and works as a mason in the United States, and he sends us monthly support; he also keeps in touch with us. I would like to ask for your prayers for him because he is suffering from gastritis. He has already visited the doctor and is under a medical treatment. We attend church, and our favorite activities are the thanksgiving services for the harvests.

I am in good health, and I am 12 years old. I attended school this year, and I was in 5^th grade. I have passed all my grades, and they have been good experiences for me. I know that God has been giving me wisdom to do a good job at school. I have a friend named Xavi, and we have known each other for years. When we meet, we like talking about our personal things. I like spending time with my mom and eating something delicious together; she is the member of my family with whom I identify a lot. She helped me with this letter, and I hope you find it interesting. May God bless you!

Yours truly

Erick Neimar Toj de la Cruz
