Dear Jonathan Griffith:

Hello!  I greet you cordially and God bless you.  I hope you are very well.  I would like to be happy, but I am not like this since my mother is very sick.  She suffers bronchial asthma.  I ask much to God.  She improves since my father and brother and I feel very lonely and I ask you, Sponsor, to pray for my mother that she helps soon, I want to spend Christmas together with her.

I expect you write soon.  Thank you for the gift you sent me.  it is very lovely!  I wish you Merry Christmas.

P.S. I send you a picture where I am enjoying a bathing in swimming pool with my classmates from CO 603.
