My Name is
Enoch
Enoch
Enoch’s mother worked at Rafiki. Her last request before her death was her hope that Enoch could come to live at Rafiki Village Nigeria. He arrived at the Village in 2006. Enoch is now a good student. Enoch thinks he would like to pursue political science someday. Rosemary Jensen, Rafiki's founder, has made a big impact on Enoch's life. Through her example, he learned to be attuned to those in need around him and help them. Enoch continues to pray to know more God as he reads His Word, to have good health, and to grow spiritually.
