My Name is
Rabecca
Rabecca
Rabecca is a double orphan. She lived with her aunt and grandmother most of her life. They were not able to take care of Rabecca and she was placed in the care of the Rafiki Foundation. Rabecca arrived at her new home Rafiki Village Zambia in May 2009. Today Rebecca is in the 10th grade. Rabecca believes Jesus is the Son of God who died for her in order that she could have eternal life with Him. She knows God has given her a new heart, saved her, and made her His child. She has faith in Him and is saved by His grace alone. From God's Word, Rabecca has learned she should be a God-fearing person so His glory can be seen in all she is doing.
