My Name is
Sharon
Sharon
Sharon's mother is deceased and her father is unknown. Her elderly, impoverished grandparents, though they tried, could not properly care for her. She was referred to the Rafiki Village Kenya in 2005. She soon benefited from the quality care, the nutritious food, and loving environment at the Village. Sharon tackles new challenges and has developed a positive attitude toward every subject. In class, Sharon makes good contributions, is curious about learning, and seeks clarifications when necessary. She is very active in Bible lessons. She has learned through the Rafiki Bible Study that this world is not our permanent home, and it admonishes her to live a life worthy and pleasing to God.
