My Name is
Andrew
Andrew
Before arriving at the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2008, Andrew was a double orphan living with his impoverished aunt who only survived off the charity of relatives; she could not provide for his basic needs. Upon arriving at the Village, Andrew rapidly transformed thanks to a good diet, good hygiene, and a loving family environment. Andrew is a well-rounded student who especially likes science. He is quiet but extremely faithful in completing his work on time. Andrew knows Jesus and believes that He is accessible to help him anytime and anywhere through prayer. Andrew often meditates on the fruit of the spirit described in Galatians 5:22–23, and he desires to have love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, and self control.
