My Name is
Catherine

Catherine
Catherine’s mother died in 2005, and her father committed suicide in 2008. Catherine was cared for by relatives for a short time before they asked that she be given a home at the Rafiki Village Malawi. She arrived at the Village in 2008, and her health soon improved from the quality care and nutritious food she received. Though shy at times, Catherine soon proved to be an active participator in classroom discussion. She has learned from the Rafiki Bible Study that Jesus Christ died on the cross to save her from her sin. She knows that He cares deeply for her soul. Catherine strives to live a life that is pleasing to God.
