Sarah
Sarah was born prematurely in a private clinic in March 2005. Her mother disappeared soon after she took Sarah to the hospital, and her father remains unknown. Sarah arrived at the Rafiki Village Uganda in April 2005. Sarah hopes to become a doctor in the future, so she is working very hard in her science and math classes. In her free time, she likes to play basketball and enjoys the friendly competition among the residents. Sarah has learned to set her heart on things above and to live by the Spirit. She seeks to understand God's Word better and grow in thankfulness.
