Esther
Esther
When Esther’s parents passed away, she and her older siblings were distributed among relatives and well-wishers. Esther and her brother were taken in by their grandmother, who was also taking care of two other children. The grandmother was old and worked as a casual laborer. Her older brother passed away in 2005. Esther arrived at Rafiki Village Kenya in August 2006. She accepted the Lord in April 2010. Esther does well in school and hopes to go to university and get a stable job. Esther continues to show interest and enthusiasm in every learning activity. She always enjoys her lessons, but she especially likes and excels in Kiswahili and Biology lessons. She is not easily distracted, is one of the more serious students in her class, and has great potential for achieving the goals she sets out for herself.
