Virginia

Updated: Dec 13, 2023


When her mother died of AIDS, Virginia’s father took the two older children to live with him. Virginia and her brother had a different father, so he left them to stay with their grandparents. Virginia was only 18 months old at the time.


Virginia immediately took to Josephine at Hope for Life, rarely leaving her side. “Mum, don’t say Esther is your last born because I am your last born.” Josephine’s biological children took her as their sister. Neglected by her grandparents and abused by relatives, she often slept at Josephine’s house.


At Hope for Life Virginia was a natural leader and worked well without supervision. She was good at leading worship.


After high school Virginia took a tailoring class and was employed. God later provided her with her own sewing machine and so she started her own business, through which she is able to support her grandmother and her younger cousins.
