Catherine
Catherine was found wandering the streets of her village when she was approximately two years old. Catherine was brought to Rafiki on December 4, 2003 to live with her new Rafiki Mother and her cottage sisters. Catherine loves reading the Bible every day, her source of inspiration and encouragement. From the time she was young, she was very prayerful and is quick to be kind, obedient, and loving. Catherine is always eager to learn, independent, and curious. She readily participates in class even when others are quiet. She can struggle in Math and Chemistry, but she is determined to do her best in every subject. She is good at History, and she is driven to ask questions on related subjects.
