Waterloo author E. Grace H. Ibrahima will be the guest speaker at the November meeting of Writer’s Unite here.
Born into an impoverished family in Trinidad, Ibrahima, a strong spirited child, she knew she would have to make life changing decisions that would affect her future. With little formal education, Ibrahima entered and graduated from a nursing program in England. She met and married a man while in England, who would help change the course of her life. The two immigrated to Canada with their two children to begin the next season in their lives.
Ibrahima’s tell all memoir, Mercy – One Life, Many Stories describes the trials she experienced as a result of her choice to leave her homeland and pursue a career.
Temptation and a mindset of unworthiness and insignificance plagued Ibrahima throughout her journey. Her desire to become what she was created to be emerged with the help of many people placed in her path.
Ibrahima will be speaking on Nov. 4 at 7:30pm at the Studio Factor building, 24 Wood Street, Drayton. Everyone is welcome to attend and refreshments will be provided.
