My Name is
Margaret
Margaret
After Margaret's parents died, she lived with her impoverished grandmother who had little means to provide for her and her sister, Grace. When she and her sister arrived at the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2007, Margaret was very malnourished. She soon benefited from the nutritious meals and quality care. Now, Margaret's favorite subject is math. She came to know Jesus through the Rafiki Bible Study, and she trusts Jesus because He protects her. Margaret is thankful for Jesus' finished work on the cross.
