My Name is
Veronica
Veronica
Veronica and her three sisters lost their mother due to high blood pressure and their father to alcoholism. After their parents died in 2010, they were placed in the care of their widowed grandmother. She had no source of income and finding food for the family was a daily problem. Though she tried, she could not provide for the girls and sought help. Veronica and her sisters arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2011. Veronica enjoys reading and is very helpful around the Village, looking out for the needs of others. She believes Jesus is the Christ, Lord of the universe, Redeemer, and Savior. She knows God has given her a new heart, saved her, and made her His child. Veronica understands that God desires she would do His will and help others who are in need.
