Nancy
Nancy’s father died in war and her mother died while delivering her younger sister, Patricia. Nancy and her sister arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in February 2008. She is a quiet girl who observes everything around her. Her dream is to be a missionary, doctor, or nurse. Nancy enjoys learning about science and math because it helps her to learn about the universe God created. Nancy holds the words of Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me," close to her heart because she knows that she cannot do anything without the help of God.
