My Story

Hello! My name is Sara Petrona Garcia Garcia, and I am so happy to greet you through this letter. I am a healthy 12-year-old girl, and I am in sixth grade. I want to share that the most challenging situation I have had was getting dengue, but God healed me. If you ask me who Jesus is to me, I will surely say He is our Savior because He died on the cross for all of us. I attend the Catholic Church with my family. I enjoy attending Mass, especially when my father and brothers in Christ ask the priest to bless the seeds before the farming season. My father is a farmer and a day laborer in our village. I identify with my mom because she is loving. She keeps busy doing the chores and taking care of our family.

By the grace of the Lord, none of my family is sick. I get along wonderfully with my cousin Karina. We are best friends and have a lot of confidence in each other. To end this letter, let me tell you that my grandmother, Isabel Tum, helped me to share all this information with LW. See you later!

Kind regards,

Sara Petrona Garcia Garcia
