Luka
Luka's mother died when he was a young child, and his father abandoned him. Luka was placed in the care of an aunt and elderly grandmother who could not care for him. Social welfare placed 3-year-old Luka at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2007. He soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment at the Rafiki Village Zambia. Luka is a bright student who enjoys studying math and science. Luka believes Jesus is the Son of God and his personal Savior, Redeemer, and Mediator. He knows that God has saved him and made him His child. Luka has learned from God's Word that he must live for God, trust Him, and tell others about Him.
