My Name is
Joanna
Joanna
Joanna is a triplet. Her sisters Janet and Jennifer also live in the Rafiki Village Ghana. Joanna’s mother died shortly after delivering her and her sisters, and their father abandoned them. Joanna and her sisters arrived at the Village in 2002. Joanna now says that God has been faithful to her in guiding her for many years; she is convinced that the Lord will remain faithful to her. Joanna draws encouragement from the hymn "A Wonderful Savior is Jesus My Lord" because the lyrics reminds her that God has her hidden in the depths of His great love.
