My Name is
Abraham
Abraham
Abraham's father died in 2009, and his mother abandoned him and his brother Wesen eighteen months later. The boys' older sister brought them to Mojo to keep them from becoming cattle-herders. She worked part time as a contract worker for a flower company, but she could not provide for the boys. Social Welfare contacted the Rafiki Foundation. The boys arrived at their new home at the Rafiki Village Ethiopia January 2011. They transitioned well, and their joy and eagerness have continually increased since living at the village. Abraham has a servant's heart, seeking to help others. He can read the Scriptures and enjoys singing during family devotions. His favorite Scripture verse is Hebrews 5:5.
