My Story

Hello! How are you doing? It is such a blessing to share a little about my life with you. My full name is Yeinly Briseyda Garcia, and I hope you find this letter engaging. I am 12 years old, and I am grateful to God for helping me at school. I am a sixth-grade student, and it has been a satisfactory experience not to fail any grade. Jesus is my Heavenly Father, and I love learning about Him at church. My family and I attend a Pentecostal Church. We like taking part in the different activities, but our favorite one is the Thanksgiving service for the harvest. I want you to know that I have lived with my grandparents since my mother traveled to the United States about six years ago. Thankfully, we are all healthy.

My mother is in touch with us every day. She works in a dairy to survive and help us economically. As for my grandparents, let me tell you that my grandfather makes a living as a mason, and my grandmother keeps busy at home. I love them and I like their nice personalities. Now, let me tell you a little bit about my best friend. Her name is Maria Isabel, and I met her about three years ago. I enjoy talking with her. This is all for now, but I appreciate you taking the time to learn about me. My aunt, Roselia Garcia, and I were glad to share all this information with LW. Have a blessed day!

In Jesus’ name,

Yeinly Briseyda Garcia
