With much affection for my dear supporters,

My name is Alejandra. At this moment I finished my 9th grade studies. My academic achievement has been excellent. I have been acknowledged as a greatly responsible and competent student. Also, I am a part of my high school basketball team and it has gone very well for us. This year we had the opportunity to represent our high school and, also, my province, very well.

Since the end-of-the-year holidays are already nearing, I want to send you a sincere and loving hug for Christmas and New Year’s.

In my congregation, since it is currently the end of the year for the boys and girls, there is a vacation school where boys and girls under 15 can sign up. It doesn’t matter from what religious tradition one is. It is going to run from December 14th-24th. The purpose is to teach kids about the birth and the life of Jesus and also to make handicrafts and do recreational activities. The members of our congregation provide refreshments during that time.

On December 24th there is a closing ceremony with a cultural performance by all the kids with a religious celebration, and at the end gifts are given to all of the enrolled kids.

Also, from December 16th- 24th we have a family prayer. Thank you for supporting me.

God bless you, and until a new opportunity,

Sincerely,
Your Goddaughter
