My name is Dereck Abraham Sanchez Perez and I am pleased to share my 2024 news with you. By the grace of the Lord, I am a healthy 15-year-old boy. I hope you are also doing well. Today, I am on vacation. So, I am using my time to help my mom with the household chores. I attended ninth grade this year. My favorite pastime is playing video games. Let me tell you that my mom still works as an office assistant. She prepares delicious food. My favorite dish is spaghetti with tomato sauce. Despite diabetes, she is doing well. She is under medical treatment. Please pray for her health and provision for my family. In advance, thank you so much! I am glad because my mom has persevered so much at church, so she offers her time and help to our brethren. We are members of a Christian Church called Treasures of Grace. I accepted Jesus as my Savior a few years ago.  

I want to use this opportunity to let you know that LW has provided me with many benefits that greatly help my family and me. I would like to be part of the collaborators’ team to help others like the LW staff does. It would be nice. Christmastime is here and I am excited because the staff and missionaries will give me a Christmas gift soon. To end this letter, I ask you to pray for my oldest sister who has stopped seeking the Lord. A teacher of the LW evangelism team encouraged her to attend church once again. I appreciate the time he dedicated to her. See you later! 

Kind regards,  

Dereck Abraham Sanchez Perez
