My Name is
Evess

Evess
After the death of both of her parents, Evess was left in the care of an impoverished aunt who could not properly feed her. When she arrived at the Rafiki Village Malawi, she was very malnourished. She adjusted well to her new, healthy diet and grew out of her new clothes quickly. Evess works hard in her studies, and she especially likes science classes. She also does well in language arts class and likes to help her classmates study. Evess knows Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior, and she understands that only Jesus can set sinners right with God.
