My Name is
Yordanos
Yordanos
Yordanos’s mother abandoned her, leaving her with her grandfather, in 2006. Her grandfather was very poor and could not care for her. He asked the Rafiki Foundation for help. Yordanos arrived at the Rafiki Village Ethiopia in 2010. She has happily adjusted to her new environment and enjoys going to school. She has a strong faith, and she encourages others. Yordanos wants to live according to the Word of God. Her favorite Bible verses are Romans 8:35–39 because they remind her that nothing can separate her from God's love.
