Mary
Mary
Mary and her sister Rachael arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2010. Mary is a kind, respectful student who works hard and cooperates willingly in the classroom. She is a joy and a delight. She has learned from the Rafiki Bible Study that as a believer's faith grows, the individual is increasingly obedient to God's Word. Mary's favorite hymn is "What a Friend We Have in Jesus."
