Sharon
When Sharon was barely a toddler, her parents died in a fatal accident. She and her sister Maureen were then sent to an orphanage. They then arrived at the Rafiki Village Kenya in 2005. The sisters soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving environment at the Village. Through the Rafiki Bible Study, Sharon has learned that she should be ready for the coming of the Lord, live a life worthy and pleasing to God, and set Christ as an example for others. She continues to grow in wisdom and knowledge as she studies the Scriptures.
