Hello! My name is Victor, and I am writing these lines to tell you about my family and me. Let’s start with me. I am in 7th grade this year, and it has been a new experience for me because I already finished my primary grades. God has been taking care of me. I am in good health, and I am 13 years old now; my birthday is at the beginning of the year. I have a friend whose name is Kevin, and we attend school together; we have known each other for many years. I identify a lot with my dad, and I accompany him to gather firewood in my free time.
I would like to ask for your prayers for my parents because they are both having health issues. My mother is suffering from gastritis, but she is not under a medical treatment due to our low resources. My father continues having pain in his leg due to the hernia. He is a farmer and day laborer, but he tries to not do heavy jobs in order to avoid the pain. He does his best to cover our basic needs. My mom is a housewife, and she raises hens, sheep and pigs for selling. As a family, we have been praying for them, and we have seen God’s help in their lives.
I tell you that my family and I attend a Pentecostal Church called Prince of Peace, and we love it when there are thanksgiving services for the harvest. We are secure in our Salvation, and LW Evangelism teachers has encouraged us to continue seeking God. My aunt helped me to write you this letter, and I hope you find it interesting. May God bless you!
Sincerely yours
Victor Bartolo Mucia
