My Name is
Rachel
Rachel
Rachel is a double orphan. Both of her parents died tragically in 2007 and 2008. After their deaths, Rachel lived with various relatives before arriving at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2009. She proved to adapt well to her new home. Rachel enjoys studying math and embraces difficult concepts. She is very interested in traveling and wants to work at the airport when she grows up. She is also very interested in learning about Liberia and other countries. Rachel loves the Lord because He came to save her life, and she knows from Philippians 4:7 that God's peace is always there to guard her. Her favorite hymn, "Count Your Blessings," reminds her to appreciate what the Lord has done for her
