Perpetual

Perpetual
Perpetual arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in November 2010. She soon proved to be a funny and lively young woman with a big personality. She is learning to be well-behaved and helpful and to try her best in all she does. Her favorite hymn is "Have Thine Own Way, Lord" because it reminds her that God made her. She prays that God will give her a love for learning and guide her future.
