Sarah
Sarah was referred to Rafiki by Katherine Hines ministries, a local ministry in Kampla. Sarah's father is deceased, and her mother gave her and her siblings to her great grandmother. However, she could not care for the children. Social welfare requested that the children be placed at the Rafiki Village Uganda. She arrived at her new home in 2008. Now, Sarah's favorite subjects are Bible, English, science, and math. She enjoys learning and knows that God has a plan and purpose for her life. She could improve in social studies. Sarah learned that God created the whole world and has given people different languages in order to communicate. She looks forward to science experiments and enjoyed an experiment in which she tested sound traveling through a solid. Sarah is studying logic and music as well.
