Her mother, Christina Langford Johnson, was one of the nine family members killed in the attack. She reportedly hid her daughter in the SUV before she got out of the vehicle, waving her arms to show the gunmen she wasn’t a threat, USA Today reported.
Faith's grandmother posted about her emotional reunion with her father on Facebook.
"God is so good for sparing her life," Connie LeBaron wrote. "She is a living angel and has brought hope to our family."
