Guadalupe Telcontar Instagram: guadalupe_telcontar_ The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me: he hath sent me to preach to the meek, to heal the contrite of heart, and to preach a release to the captives, and deliverance to them that are shut up. Isaias LXI:1 The LORD has anointed me; He has commissioned me to bring glad tidings to the lonely and to heal the brokenhearted. Isaiah 61:1a Three installments of my revised Dinosaur Conservation & Rescue League series is now available on Wattpad. If you feel so inclined, give it a read.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. โ™ฅ I am currently available on Reedsy: At various unfixed times. My weekends are sometimes busier than my weekdays. I will read stories, like, comment, and reply to comments whenever I can. I will update if this changes. Please leave comments any time, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Guadalupe Telcontar is a girl who is praying for and striving to follow God's Will every day. One of her first words was "Read"; she now reads to herself most of the time. She also enjoys writing the stories she wants to read but can't find anywhere. She prefers to write with a frequently-sharpened Staedtler HB2 pencil and ruled notebooks. AFOL (=Adult Fan of LEGO) Reader of Tolkien Dinosaur enthusiast I like the color green, animals, water, trees, stones, agates, obsidian, feathers, looking at the stars, following tracks and footprints, discovering new knowledge, ruins and wreckage, hiking, snowboarding, red geraniums, pasties, pizza, brownies, fudge, black chocolate, books, journals, reading, and writing. Christ all around me, King of my life! <><><><><><><> Thank you to all the people who like my stories. Please comment, too!
