Lillian
Lillian lost both her parents to AIDS when she was a young child. She was then placed in the care of her impoverished aunt. Though she tried, Lillian's aunt could not properly care for her and the nine other children in her care. Lillian was referred by social welfare and arrived at the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2006. She enjoys learning about East African history and knows that God is in history, shaping events and lives. She also loves Bible class and understands that she has the privilege to tell others about Jesus. Lillian trusts in Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior and wants to serve Him with her whole being.
