My Name is
Jonah
Jonah
Jonah’s father died when he was just a year old, and his mother died soon after. He was then placed in the care of his aged maternal grandmother. She had no work and could not properly care for Jonah. Social welfare referred Jonah to the Rafiki Village Nigeria, and he arrived in 2005. Jonah is now a quiet and reflective young man. When he graduates from Rafiki, he desires to pursue a career in the medical field. Jonah wishes to fully trust the Lord with his life, and he knows it takes discipline to follow God. He says he is willing to do what God requires of him to become a godly man.
