Sharon
Sharon was found abandoned as a small child. Little is known about her background and family. After investigating the situation, a social welfare officer approved for Sharon to be moved to the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2003. She is now a quiet, thoughtful young woman. Sharon has a quick and ready smile. She excels in her class work and is very competitive. Her teachers applaud her good work. Sharon is developing artistically because she practices the violin daily. She is grateful that she is a coheir with Christ. She desires to keep herself free from unholiness and ungodliness by maintaining a consistent quiet time with God. Sharon is committed to serving God forever.
