Serena
Serena
Serena’s mother died from malaria complications three months after giving birth to Serena and her twin sister, Rena. Her father also died in 2008 from an illness. Serena and her sister then lived with an impoverished aunt who struggled to provide for the twins and her own children. She appealed to the Rafiki Foundation for help. The girls arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2010. Since coming to the Rafiki Village, Serena has learned about God and been baptized! Her favorite Bible verse is Romans 8:31 because it reminds her that God is on her side.
