My Name is
Daniel

Daniel
Daniel and his sister, Miriam, were placed in their grandfather's care after their parents died. The grandfather was too burdened, having to care for eight other children, to continue caring for them. Both Daniel and his sister arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in July 2005. Dan likes school, especially art, geography, and computer studies. He says education is valuable because it helps us learn how to express ourselves to others and how to live in society. Daniel continues to learn about God by reading the Bible. He enjoys learning more about God's faithfulness in the Scriptures. He knows that when God promises to do something, it will get done.
