Elube
Elube’s parents died when she was a young child. Her older sister then took her in but had no consistent financial means to raise her. Elube arrived at the Rafiki Village Malawi in March 2008 and quickly adapted to her new home. Now, Elube knows and loves Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior, and she has committed to remaining faithful to Him. She desires to live a life worthy of Jesus and strives to offer her life as a sacrifice to the Lord.
