I send you warm greetings hoping you are doing well. My name is Angela Veronica, and I am writing this letter to tell you how I am. I am 10 years old, and I am well. Thankfully, I did a good job at school, and I was in 4th grade this year; I studied in the morning. I am now helping with the household chores. I have been blessed with lunches at the feeding program, and there, my favorite dish is a typical one called “hilachas”. I love the Christmas celebration at the program, especially the lunch because we eat fried chicken with French fries.  

My father is having health issues so he has stopped working. For this reason, my mother has started to raise and sell domestic animals to cover our needs; she is also using some savings that we have. I would like to ask for your prayers for my dad because he has a kind of mass in one of his legs and it becomes inflamed when he exerts himself a lot . He is thinking to return home to be with his family and treat this health issue here in Guatemala. We grow corn for our consumption. We are assured of our Salvation, and we are members of a charismatic group that belongs to the Catholic Church. I tell you that my grandmother, Juana, helped me to give this information to an Evangelism teacher. I end my letter wishing you the best.  

Sincerely yours 

Angela Veronica Luis Calel
