My Name is
Linda
Linda
Linda’s parents died in 2006, and she and her sister, Beatrice, were then left in the care of their aunt. They lived in a two-room house with nine other relatives. The girls' aunt had stomach cancer and could not afford medication for herself. Though she tried, she could not provide for the girls' basic needs. Linda and her sister arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2008. Linda believes Jesus is one of the three persons in the Godhead, the Son of God who became flesh, died, rose, and now intercedes for us. God has given Linda a new heart, saved her, and made her His child. Linda believes it is the reason He called her to Rafiki. He wants her to serve Him, causing change in this world and making a difference by bringing others to Him. Linda has learned that God desires her to live in holiness, goodness, truth, and justice.
