My Story

Hello! How are you? I am Victor Leonel, and I am writing this letter to tell you about my life. and family. Thankfully, we are all healthy and doing well. I am now living with my mother while my brother, Carlos, continues living with my grandma, Julia. My mother works as a maid in our town, and she does her best to cover our needs; she also helps my brother financially. My grandma and her children work to cover my brother’s expenses.

I am 8 years old, and I am in 3^rd grade this year. Juan and I have been friends for two years; we love playing soccer at school. I know that God has been with me the whole time, and He has prepared me for the most difficult times. God has united my family to pray. For me, Jesus is my faithful friend. I identify most with my grandmother because I spend a lot of time with her. We are members of the Catholic Church, and we enjoy hearing about God’s word; we faithfully attend church. In this occasion, my grandmother helped me to write you this letter. I hope you find my information interesting.
