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 struggled to care for them and sought help. Abraham and his brother arrived at the Rafiki Village Ethiopia in 2011. They transitioned well, and their joy and eagerness have continually increased since living at the Village. Abraham has a servant's heart, and he seeks to help others. His favorite Scripture verse is Hebrews 5:5, and his favorite hymn is "Holy Spirit Be My Guide."
