My Story

I fondly greet you, hoping the grace of the Lord be with you. This is Esdras Otoniel Pedro Gonzalez, and I am pleased to share a little about my life with you. First, I want you to know that my mom helped me provide all this information to LW. I am a healthy fourth-grade student. I turned 11 years old recently. I have made good friends at school. My best friend’s name is Adolfo, and I met him recently. We love playing hide-and-seek when we gather. Now, let me tell you a little about my family. Thankfully, everybody is healthy. We have had lovely and exciting experiences together, like when we visited a big farm. Our favorite part of the place was the pools. I felt God’s care while we enjoyed the trip. I have learned that Jesus is always with us because He is our Heavenly Father and faithful friend.

I kindly ask you to pray for my father. He is a mechanic, but he is unemployed at the moment. He is a wise man and has always saved a little money. He uses his savings to cover our needs while he finds a job. My mom works in a place where they sell second-hand clothes in Duenas. She uses her income to contribute to the expenses. I am so happy because I still have my grandparents with me. Their names are Jose and Norberta. I admire and love them so much. To end this letter, let me tell you that a member of the LW-evangelism team shared the gospel with my mom and me as an encouragement to seek the Lord again. She also invited us to Liberty Church, which we appreciated so much. Until next time!

Affectionately,

Esdras Otoniel Pedro Gonzalez
