My Name is
Priscilla
Priscilla
Priscilla, her twin Gladys, and their sister Erica became orphans after both their parents died within a year after Erica’s birth. Priscilla arrived with her sisters at the Rafiki Village Ghana in October 2009. Priscilla's favorite hymn is "What a Friend We Have in Jesus." The hymn teaches her that we are privileged to be able to talk to God directly.
