Juliet
Juliet
Both of Juliet’s parents died when she was about two years old. She was then placed in the care of her impoverished grandmother. Social welfare was concerned with her living conditions and they, with the permission of the grandmother, referred her to the Rafiki Village Nigeria. Juliet arrived in September 2006. She is now a good student who likes school. She also enjoys reading books and using her imagination. She has been working on building a strong relationship with God so she can share that love with others. Juliet desires to become the young woman God has called her to be. She prays to trust God with her life, goals, and the desires of her heart.
