My Name is
Meseret
Meseret
After both of Meseret’s parents passed away, her aunt gave her to a previous employer for care. Social Welfare was contacted in regard to Meseret’s care, and they approached the Rafiki Foundation. Meseret was approved by the Rafiki Foundation and arrived at the Rafiki Village Ethiopia in 2014. Now, Meseret finds the Bible captivating and reads it often with the other Rafiki girls. Her favorite day is Sunday because she can spend time at church with fellow believers. She appreciates the opportunity to learn at the Rafiki School and especially enjoys learning about natural sciences. Meseret prays that she will have steadfast faith in God, endure all trials with patience, and make wise decisions.
