My Name is
William
William
William was brought to a hospital with head injuries in August 2003. He was treated and he recovered, but the police were unable to locate his parents or any of relatives. William was admitted to a babies' home shortly thereafter. After a medical exam to determine that there were no permanent problems caused by the head injury, he arrived at the Rafiki Village Uganda in April 2004. Now, William’s favorite school subject is Bible “because I want to learn how to teach people God’s Word.” William also enjoys playing the trumpet. He knows it is God's love which inspires his sponsors to give to him.
