My Story

I fondly greet you, wishing you a lot of success in everything you do. I am Anderson Manuel de la Cruz Garcia, your sponsored child. I want to share that I am in second grade. I love playing soccer with my friends during recess. My best friend’s name is Dario. I turned 10 years old in November, but my family and I could not celebrate my birthday as everybody usually does because of our economic limitations. However, I am grateful to the Lord because I am healthy and I have all I need to survive. Jesus is the creator of a new world, and I love learning from him during services at church. We are a Christian family and do our best not to miss any services.

I am deeply grateful to the Lord because my parents always watch over me. My father is a day laborer and dedicates part of his time to working on his own corn crops. On the other hand, my mother is dedicated to cleaning our house and selling homemade snacks at school. This is all for now, but I appreciate you taking the time to read my letter. My mother and I were pleased to share all this information with LW. See you later!

Kisses and hugs,

Anderson Manuel de la Cruz Garcia
