My Name is
Kenny
Kenny
Kenny and his brother arrived at the Rafiki Village Rwanda in 2014. They soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment at the Village. They are now day students at the Rafiki School. Kenny’s favorite class is art because he can use his God-given creativity to reflect the beauty of God. Through the Rafiki Bible Study, he has learned that we must always stand firm in our faith, and he strives to do so. He seeks to show love to others by helping them in their studies and encouraging them to obey God. Kenny prays that he will be obedient to God and grow closer to Him each day.
