My Story

Hello! My name is Dany Alexander Simaj Toj, and I am pleased to share my updated information with you. How are you doing? As you know, I turned 13 years old in July. I am grateful to the Lord for allowing me to start a new year alongside my family. My mother usually prepares a delicious lunch to celebrate my day. That has been the most loving experience that I can enjoy every year. Luckily, I am healthy and attend the sixth grade. My best friend’s name is Sergio Sebastian. We have been friends for many years. We usually gather to play soccer.

At home, I usually help my mother with the chores. What I enjoy the most is learning to weave. I admire her because she does a great job with her hands. My father changed his job, and now, he makes a living as a mason’s helper to support our family. Fortunately, my whole family is doing well. A member of the LW staff shared the gospel with my mother recently as an encouragement to seek the Lord. We still do not attend any church. This is all for now, but I appreciate you taking the time to read my letter. My mother helped me share it with LW just for you. Take care of yourself!

With much love,

Dany Alexander Simaj Toj
