My Name is
Grace
Grace
Grace arrived at the Rafiki Village Rwanda in 2011. She soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment. Due to developments in Rwanda, she is now living off-site from the Village. We are, however, still supporting her through a full scholarship and two meals daily. Grace continues to read her Bible and spend time talking to Jesus daily. From studying the Bible at Rafiki, Grace has learned that we must trust in God and obey His commands. Grace is a day student at the Rafiki School in Rwanda.
