My Name is
Dalitso
Dalitso
Dalitso and his twin sister, Blessing, moved four times after their mother died when they were babies. They lived at two babies’ homes and then spent time with an uncle and then their grandmother. Social welfare conducted a home visit, found them to be very malnourished, and sought a permanent solution with the Rafiki Foundation. The twins arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2013. Dalitso enjoys playing sports with his friends in his free time. He also enjoys reading, and C.S. Lewis is one of his favorite authors. When Dalitso prays, he thanks God for the many blessings he has received at the Rafiki Village. He knows the Bible is God's written Word. He believes Jesus is the Son of God who died for his sins and is his Savior, and he continues to pray to be wise and loving.
