My Story

First, thank you so much for taking the time to read this letter! My full name is Neymar Yerinson Garcia de la Cruz. I hope you and your loved ones are doing well. Thankfully, I am healthy. I am 10 years old and attend the fourth grade at school. I want to open my heart and tell you that my grandmother’s death hurt my family and me so much. She died about seven months ago. We have sought the Lord through prayer, and He has comforted me and strengthened our hearts. Now, I want to tell you more about my family. I love my father because he is a good advisor and understands me. He is a farmer and a day laborer. He has trouble working in the field because he has uric acid. He does not take any medicine because of a lack of money. My mom is a great housewife and raises chickens and pigs at home to sell. She still suffers from varicose veins, but takes medicine to mitigate the issues. I get along wonderfully with my classmates. Many of them are my friends. We have a lot of fun playing soccer at school. My family and I attend a charismatic renewal group, which belongs to the Catholic Church. Our favorite celebration at church is the first fruit presentation. Until next time! 

Special regards,  

Neymar Yerinson Garcia de la Cruz
