Three Letter Tuesday: Volume 24

Another Tuesday, another three wonderful letters to share.

:)

This first letter is from Mulwa. He is 11 years old, lives in Kenya, and he wrote this letter on November 8th, 2018.

Mulwa salutes you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. He says he is moving on well together with his family. He hopes you and your family members are moving on well too. He says he is very happy because of the support you have been giving him. He says he has been receiving the letters that you've been sending to him. He receives the letters with a clean and joyful heart. He says he likes going to Sunday school to learn more about God. He says that at school he is putting forth a lot of effort to achieve his goals. He has done the end of term exams. Next year, he will be promoted to grade six. He says that he always prays for you to be blessed and he is requesting prayers from you for him to continue doing well. He likes the teachings you write to him about giving to others in their time of need.

Next up is a letter from Kwizera. I love the verse he dedicated to me in this letter. It's a simple verse, but it also happens to be the verse of the month at the preschool that I teach at. Just something special, I think. 

Kwizera is 13 years old and is from Rwanda. His letter is not dated.

Dear Kayla, 

I foremost greet you and your family in the name of Jesus Christ. I was pleased by your letter. I was amazed by the story you wrote to me that a person must help someone else with things that person doesn't have. Here, it rains. We have finished doing the exams and soon we will go into holidays. Pray for me to succeed. I am happy to relay you verse John 3:16. I and my family are pleased with your letters. Thanks for the photos.

Three Letter Tuesday (On a Wednesday): Volume 15

Well, this week is getting away from me. I didn't even remember that yesterday was Tuesday. And it's going on 10:00 on Wednesday, but I still wanted to get this post out. I could have skipped it and started back up next week, but then my volume numbers would be off. Oh well. I made it 14 weeks without a mistake. I think that's pretty impressive. ;)

Here are three letters:

First up, a nice letter from Jhoyra, who is responding to some of the things that I've written to her.

Jhoyra is from Peru and just turned 12, though she was 11 years old when this letter was written. Her letter is dated August 23rd, 2018.

Dear Sponsor Kayla, 

I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I thank you for the letters and the pictures with the stories you sent me. I do know the story of Pinocchio because they told it to me when I was small child. It is a reflection story. Also the story of Jack and the Beanstalk had a nice message. Thank you for the stories you share with me. I had my school break. I traveled to San Ramon city, in the jungle, with my mom and my relatives. I also thank you for the picture of Yeidys. She looks pretty. We share some of the same things. Like her, I also go to church every Sunday. I promise I am going to pray for Yeidys. What sports does she like? I ask for your prayers for me and my family. I say goodbye with a hug. 

Jhoyra

I want to thank you for your support and your thoughts of me. This year, I am promoted to grade 13. Please remember to pray for me so that God will increase my intelligence and I can have a successful school year. I will be praying for you as well. Thank you for the letter and the picture you sent to me. Thanks for the story you told me. I really liked it because it contained moral lessons.

A Large Influx of Kids!

For you quick-eyed folks, you may have seen some new faces on my blog page. Or...perhaps you haven't because at this point, you have to scroll quite far down to see my whole list of kids. Whew!

But either way, 10 new kiddos have recently joined my family! A friend of mine was writing to many correspondent kids and recently has found herself quite a bit more busy than usual and has found herself unable to write consistently to her kids. Instead of just letting them go, she asked me if I would be able to take on writing to them. That way, she knows for sure that they will receive regular letters and she'll be able to keep up with any updated photos or information about them.

Naturally, I accepted! So let's welcome the following kiddos to my family:

8 Year Old Dennis - Kenya

11 Year Old Anny - Guatemala

17 Year Old Elvis - Kenya

7 Year Old Raibel - Dominican Republic

16 Year Old Juan Camilo - Colombia

16 Year Old Romli - Tanzania

9 Year Old Semira - Ethiopia

12 Year Old Hansen - Indonesia

7 Year Old Angeline - Kenya

13 Year Old Mirajul - Bangladesh
