Brighton
Brighton came to the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2007 along with his older brother Petros after the death of their parents. Though he was a timid boy, he has a great personality. Brighton acknowledges that Jesus has given him life and that He is merciful, loving, and kind. He thanks God for giving him a place to stay in Rafiki, and for providing him with food and an education.
