My Name is
Judith

Judith
After Judith’s mother passed away in 2006, she was placed in the care of her grandmother, who could not provide for her basic needs. Judith arrived at the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2007. Now, Judith enjoys reading in her free time, and she enjoys discussing books with her friends. She is inspired by Christian in John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress. She learned from the character that standing firm in faith and resisting temptations will lead a believer to the promised land. Judith understands that true freedom is found in obedient service to God.
