My Name is
Martha
Martha
Martha's parents were killed during the conflict in the Ivory Coast. She and her brother, Darris, were put in the care of their impoverished grandmother. Though she tried, she could not provide for the children's basic needs. Martha and her brother arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2011. If God allows it, Martha would like to be a missionary someday. She wants to teach others how to read the Bible. Martha loves Jesus because He died for her sins. Through the Rafiki Bible Study, Martha has learned about the coming of Christ and knows that she must stand firm in her faith.
