Biography

Patricia comes from the village of Anai-Okii.  After the death of her parents, Patricia was living with her elderly grandfather who could not take proper care of her.  Patricia came to live at our Lira Children’s Home in December 2009. 

Patricia is described as a timid, well-behaved, and active young girl.  She plays well with others and likes to play athletic games with her friends.  Patricia’s favorite colors are green and purple, and her favorite subjects in school include math and reading.  When she grows up, Patricia hopes to be a nurse.  She helps out in her home by cleaning and carrying water from the village well.

Patricia enjoys attending church.  Please join us in praying for physical and spiritual growth, and blessings in Patricia’s life.
