My Name is
Grace
Grace
Grace’s mother abandoned her and her brother, Martin, and their father died in 2005. The children arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana that year. Grace is a unique and creative girl with a very active imagination. "It is Well With My Soul" is Grace's favorite hymn. Through singing hymns and studying the Bible, she is reminded that God will continue to be faithful to her in both good times and bad. With such knowledge, she has joy and peace in every situation. She continues to pray for strong faith and a diligent spirit in school.
