My Name is
Sarai
Sarai
Sarai was taken in by her grandmother after the death of her father and mother. However, her grandmother was caring for four other grandchildren and having difficulty providing for their basic needs. Rafiki was contacted, and Sarai arrived at the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2009. Sarai is known as one of the hardest working students in her class. She is very active in class discussion and enjoys participating. Sarai has experienced many answered prayers and understands that this is because God is faithful and good to her. She strives to trust the Lord because He alone determines what is best for her life.
