My Name is
Moses
Moses
Moses was left as an orphan after his mother was killed in a traffic accident. His father remains unknown. He was taken in by his mother’s aunt, who was seventy-years-old at the time and farmed to support herself and two other dependents. She had very little resources and asked Rafiki for help. Moses arrived at Rafiki Village Malawi in 2011. Moses soon proved to be a good student in every subject. He appreciates encouragement and likes to see his hard work paying off. Moses knows that God loves him and trusts in Jesus for salvation. He continues to pray for greater spiritual growth.
