My Name is
Naomi
Naomi
Naomi’s father died when she was a year old. Her mother is also deceased. She and her sister, Eden, went to live with their uncle. He had several children of his own and was also his grandfather's caretaker. Overburdened with many to care for and with little means to do so, the uncle worked with social welfare to send Naomi and Eden to the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2004. Naomi is now a good student who likes school. Naomi has learned to trust God simply because of who He is. She is grateful for the love that God shows her, and she marvels at God's faithfulness and how he never goes back on a promise.
