My Name is
Tonny
Tonny
Tonny’s mother abandoned him immediately after birth. After being discovered in deplorable physical condition, he was taken to the hospital for treatment. After an investigation, a social welfare officer gave the approval for Tonny to move to the Rafiki Village Uganda in February 2003. He is now in excellent health. Tonny's favorite subjects are history and geography because he is eager to know how things come into existence and excited to discover intriguing things about God's earth. He excels most in geography and English. Tonny understands that while he was yet a sinner, Christ died for him. He enjoys reading the book of Philippians, especially 3:13–14. It encourages him to forget the past and press forward to the goal of receiving Christ.
