My Name is
Isaac

Isaac
Isaac’s mother died an hour after giving birth to him and his father abandoned him shortly after. Isaac arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in June 2003. Isaac is a friendly young man and loved meeting visitors who came to the Village. He enjoys being generous to others and strives to be thankful in all circumstances. Isaac feels blessed to know that out of millions of Ghanaians, God ordained it for him to grow up with Rafiki. He prays that his love for Jesus will deepen and that God will continue to guide him each day.
