My Story

First, thank you so much for taking the time to read my letter! This is Norma, and I am delighted to say hello to you through this letter. I am a Catholic, so I usually attend mass on Thursdays and Saturdays with my family. Listening to God’s news at church is fantastic! I also can do it at the feeding program. Actually, a teacher of the evangelism team shared the gospel with my father to encourage our family to continue loving the Almighty. He also took advantage of that moment to collect this information for you. LW is a meaningful project since we have been received with joy at the center by the staff. My parents are merchants and they do their best for our family. They grow and sell apples, peaches, plums, and avocadoes. Besides that, we raise hens at home for our consumption. Fortunately, my whole family and I are healthy.

I am twelve years old and I look forward to becoming a doctor and speaking English when I am older. Therefore, I am doing my best at school as a fifth grader. The best method to learn is receiving face-to-face classes because the teacher explains the lessons better. My favorite season is summer because I enjoy cooling off in the pools. I like drinking almost all kinds of smoothies, and my favorite sport is soccer. My birthday was in May. What I enjoy the most is eating a delicious cake to celebrate with my family. This is all for now, but I hope you found my information engaging.

Many kisses and hugs,

Norma Leticia Mendoza Par
