To The People I Love

To my three favorite people from Living Word Fellowship Church- and campus ministry. . .Marquita, J-Mack, and LaTrice:

First, let me just say that I'd like to keep in touch with each of you this summer. LaTrice- you already have my address, but here it is for Marquita and J-Mack. . .
Nico Echols
4136 South Ellis Avenue
Chicago, Illinois 60653
773-285-3114
No cell phone number at this time, as I hope to get a new cell phone some time during the summer. When I have the number, I'll give it to you. But, I can give you my e-mail address- which I will check as often as possible. I probably won't check my necho2@uis.edu account much, but I'll try to check cubsrule2@hotmail.com and echolsnico@yahoo.com as often as possible.
You've all been like sisters and a brother (yes, you, J-Mack. . . you haven't been forgotten) to me. I know we just really got to know each other over the course of this semester, but it feels like I've known each of you forever. I have really enjoyed getting to know you guys this semester, and I hate it that I won't get to see you during the summer. Wait, I might be back at UIS/in Springfield for a disability leadership conference sometime in July; however, I won't know for sure about that for a few weeks.
I'll return to LWFC upon the start of the new school year- at which time I know where I'll be living so I can give you the address/location of where to pick me up for church each week. Though we've only known each other for a few short months, I feel as if God has already created a very strong bond between us that can never be broken- hopefully, no matter where we are for the summer.

Your sister,
Nico

P.S. Please keep a place for me in the LWFC family, even while I'm gone. I'd like to stay in touch with everyone to find out what you are all up to.

My Interesting Life As a Student

Springfield, Illinois, United States
I'm living in Springfield, but I'm originally from Chicago. I am now living in a group home for people who are visually impaired. Living at the Mary Bryant Home has been a huge step in my life. I am now able to get involved in activities every day. I am making lots of new friends, and I'm enjoying living with my new family. Since I'm the youngest person, I feel like I have lots of parents and grandparents, and even my best friend, who is like a big sister, to spend my time with. I don't think I'd change this for anything else in the world.
