My Name is
Samson
Samson
At a very young age, Samson was abandoned and taken to a local orphanage. Little is known about his background and family. After an investigation of the situation, the social welfare officer gave approval for Samson to be moved to the Rafiki Village Uganda; he arrived in 2003. Now, Samson is a graduate of the Rafiki School. He is pursuing music at the African Institute of Music on a Rafiki Scholarship and hopes to become a sound production manager. He loves to be creative through music and art. Samson trusts Jesus because He loves him, gave up His life for him, and encourages him. He desires to live a life worthy of God, and he is grateful for all the ways that God has blessed him.
