Precious Blessing
Before Precious arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia, February 2012, she lived with her grandmother and nine other children in a small house. Her mother died in 2009 and her father abandoned her. Food was scarce and there was no opportunity for an education. Precious' grandmother contacted the Rafiki Foundation in hopes of a better life for her granddaughter. Precious was approved and became a resident in February 2012. She is now in the 5th grade. Precious believes Jesus is the Son of the Most High God. When she prays to Him, she asks God to protect each and every person from bad things. An answer Precious received to her request that God would be with her was answered! She has not begun reading her Bible on her own yet. Precious has the discernment to know when others are doing either the right or wrong thing. She feels bad when someone does something wrong, but feels good when someone does the right thing.
