My Name is
Gifty
Gifty
Gifty arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in June of 2009. Gifty is a kind, respectful, helpful, and intelligent young woman. She works hard and succeeds in all of her classes. She especially enjoys studying science and French. Once she finishes her schooling, Gifty hopes to become a nurse so that she can share the gospel while caring for people’s physical health. Gifty has learned to persevere as she faces new circumstances. As she continues to grow and her life continues to change, she sees God using these times to strengthen her faith. Gifty prays that she will always trust in God’s plan for her life and that she will gain a greater understanding of God’s Word.
