Yaw
Yaw
Yaw, his twin sister, and his older sister were orphaned when both of their parents died. They then lived with an impoverished uncle who could not care for their needs. He appealed to Rafiki to assume the children's care. The three children were approved and arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2010. Yaw soon proved to be a young man with a very gentle nature who seems to get along well with everyone. He likes the hymn "What Can Wash Away My Sins" because he knows and believes that only Jesus' blood can cleanse him. Through the Rafiki Bible Study, Yaw has learned that we should always rejoice in the Lord, be praying at all times, and be spiritually alert for when Christ returns.
