Zipporah Ngoiri Waitathu

Zipporah Ngoiri Waitathu, a member of the Little Sisters of Mary Immaculate of Gulu, was born in the Diocese of Nakuru, Kenya. She is the sixth child in a family of 11. Her desire for religious life was sparked when she was in primary school by her mother, Sarah Nyakanini. Her father, Amos Waitathu, a peasant farmer, instilled in her a love for agriculture. She has learned that sacrifices are necessary to achieve goals, and she finds fulfillment in serving the less privileged in the community.
