Rafiki Foundation | Training Africans to Transform Africa for Christ
My Name is
Janvier
Janvier
Janvier’s father abandoned him and his mother and moved to Tanzania. Janvier’s mother was sick when her husband left her, so she and Janvier moved in with his grandmother. His mother's health did not improve, and she died in 2008. Janvier’s grandmother asked for help to provide for Janvier. He was approved by social welfare and arrived at the Rafiki Village Rwanda in 2008. He rapidly transformed thanks to a good diet, good hygiene, and a loving family environment. As he prays to the Lord, Janvier's faith continues to grow. He thanks the Lord for the opportunity to be in the Rafiki School, where he learns about the Bible and other subjects in a Christian environment.
