Rhema Marvanne (born Rhema Marvanne Voraritskul, September 15, 2002) is a gospel singer and actress from Carrollton, Texas, USA.
She is the daughter of Teton and Wendi "Mercy" Marvanne Voraritskul. Teton's father, Chai Voraritskul was an immigrant from Thailand.[2] Her mother, Wendi, died of ovarian cancer on November 8, 2008 at the age of 36.[3][4] Rhema gained Internet fame at the age of six after recording her first song, "Amazing Grace". She appeared on the Maury Povich Show Most Talented Kids 2010, and Korean show Star King.[5]
She also appears in Gerard Butler's 2011 drama film Machine Gun Preacher where Butler plays a drug dealer-turned-crusader on a mission to save kids.
During his baptism, Rhema is actually singing "Amazing Grace"; at that particular moment Butler goes from a bad guy to a good guy, and then goes to South Africa to save all the little kids from the war.
— Teton Voraritskul, Rhema's father.[6]
