I found your name and address at the website of Think God Ministries. The website said you are interested in pen-pals. That is why I am writing today. I would be interested in being your pen-pal.

Since I don't really know anything about you I am using this sample letter found on the website. I guess it can be considered an ice-breaker. This is my way of introducing myself and saying "hello."

Perhaps when you get back to me you can tell me about yourself, and we can take it from there. What are your hobbies? How would you describe yourself? Feel free to tell me anything you want me to know. It will help us to get our friendship off the ground.

To tell you just a little about me, I live in Jonestown, Arkansas, where I work as a hair stylist. I am married and have three wonderful kids. My family is very important to me. I just don't know what I would do without them.
