My Name is
Christabel
Christabel
After both of Christabel’s parents died of illness, she and her brother Jehosephat arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2008. When asked who or what makes her the most excited about learning, she said it is Jesus; He helps her see the need for education and understand the truth of God's Word through education. Christabel says she trusts Jesus because He is her best friend, and she is amazed that God chooses Christians on the basis of His grace alone.
