My Name is
Rinet
Rinet
Rinet's mother was terminally ill and not expected to live much longer. Social services recommended that Rinet be moved to the Rafiki Village, and she arrived in 2013. Rinet is now an outstanding math student and enjoys math the most out of all her subjects. Once she finishes her schooling, she hopes to become an accountant so that she can continue working with numbers. Rinet is thankful to God for teaching her to love others as she loves herself. Her favorite part of each day is studying God’s Word with her Rafiki family. Rinet prays that her faith will continue to grow and that she will be consistent in showing love to others.
