Naomi
Naomi
Naomi and her three sisters lost their mother due to high blood pressure and their father to alcoholism. After their parents died in 2010, they were placed in the care of their widowed grandmother. She had no source of income and finding food for the family was a daily problem. Though she tried, she could not provide for the girls and sought help. Naomi and her sisters arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2011. Naomi believes that Jesus is the Son of God. She says she likes to teach others God's word, and she especially enjoys studying the stories of Abraham and Ruth. One of her favorite hymns is "Great is Thy Faithfulness." She continues to ask God to help her be a hard-working young woman.
