My Name is
Abel

Abel
Abel was found abandoned as a baby. An orphanage was unable to find his birth parents or an adoptive home for him, so Abel was referred to the Rafiki Village Kenya. He arrived in July 2009 and settled in well. He enjoys mathematics and language arts. Abel is exceptional in godly character and very orderly. He shows leadership abilities and often leads group discussions and coordinates group projects. He continues to learn how to put God's Word into practice, and he prays for a discerning heart.
