Child
I send you warm greetings from Chuchuca and hoping you are doing well when my letter reaches you. I am Juan Edwin Coj Garcia and I am a 6-year-old healthy child. Thankfully, I am enrolled at school this year and I am in kindergarten grade. I feel the presence of God in my life because he helps me. Jesus is my savior. I admire my mother because she takes care of me with much love. My best friend’s name is Kevin and we spend a good time by playing soccer when we gather and we have been friends for two months. I love our friendship.
We are members of the Assemble of God Christian Church and I like to participate in the thanksgiving service in which we give thanks to God for our first crops. The LW evangelism teacher shared the gospel with my grandmother and she is assured of her salvation. She provided all this information during the visit.
My mother does the home duties and she also weaves typical clothes. Moreover, she raises and sells her hens to earn some extra money. Her name is Petronila Garcia Barrera. My grandmother`s name is Celsa Barrera. She is 48 years old. She also is a weaver and she sells ice creams and “choco-bananos” (frozen bananas covered with melted chocolate) in order to get some income. My mother and grandmother are women that work hard to sustain the family. I live under their care. Thankfully, they are in good health condition. Thank you for your attention and may God bless you greatly. All the best for you!
Warm regards,
Juan Edwin Coj Garcia
