My Name is
Dereck
Dereck
Dereck’s mother died shortly after giving birth to him and his twin sister, Diana. The hospital where they were taken contacted Rafiki, and the children were sent to social welfare services for a complete evaluation of the situation. The twins were brought to the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2006. Dereck soon proved to be an enjoyable young man who has a great sense of humor. He has learned from the Bible studies that Jesus will be coming soon for His people and that he should be faithful and believe God's Word. He continues to pray for wisdom in Christ and success in his studies.
