My Story

Many greetings and hugs to you! I am so happy to write this letter to share with you my news. I hope this finds you in good health. I am Abner Geovanny Marroquin Pena, and I am 10 years old. Thankfully, I am in good health. I attend school as a fourth-grade student in the afternoon. I like playing soccer with my friends on weekends. I am grateful to the Lord for allowing me to be part of LW-Adopt a Child. This project has blessed me with delicious food. I love eating fried chicken the most. I like celebrating Christmas at LW because of the decorations and dramas. May the Lord reward you for supporting and trusting in this project!

Now, I want to tell you a little about my family. My mom works as a babysitter in our town to support our family economically. She is in good health. As for my father, let me tell you that he does not help me financially as he used to. He makes a living by selling jewelry. I do not attend my church at the moment, but I hope to do it soon. A teacher of the evangelism team shared the gospel and encouraged my oldest sister and me to find time to attend our church again. We appreciate his advice a lot. This is all for now, but I send you my best wishes. I hope to hear from soon.

Sincerely yours,

Abner Geovanny Marroquin Pena
