My Name is
Denise
Denise
When Denise was one month old, she was abandoned at the Kenyatta National hospital. No one came forward to claim her, and she was then referred to Rafiki. She arrived at the Rafiki Village Kenya in 2007. Denise is hard-working and especially enjoys social studies. She loves to play basketball and volleyball, to swim, and to sing. She has learned from the Rafiki Bible Study that we should walk in a way that pleases God and that we should be ready for the coming of the Lord. She knows that Christ died to redeem her from the captivity of sin through His blood. She strives to be a God-fearing young woman.
