Esther is a bright and humble young woman who loves the Lord very much. She is currently in grade 11 at local Girls high School. She lives with her parents and two siblings. Esther's parents find it hard to keep her and the other siblings at school because the father depends on seasonal farming, which is not promising due to recurrent drought. The mother works as a tea girl in one of the schools, and neither of them gets enough to feed and educate their family. Esther is determined to become what God intended her to be. With the support of someone, she will be able to become what God planned her to be. Let us keep her in our prayers.
