My Name is
Dennis
Dennis
Dennis lived with his grandmother after his mother became mentally ill and incapable of caring for him, and his father abandoned the family when he was a baby. His grandmother was caring for many children at the time. The family survived by selling small quantities of merchandise on the street. Dennis's grandmother sought help for his future and was introduced to Rafiki. Dennis arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in September 2014. Dennis believes Jesus is the Son of God and the Bible is God's word. When Dennis prays, he asks God to give him wisdom and to help him work diligently in school. Dennis says God continues to answer his prayers. One of Denis's favorite Bible characters is Abraham because of his faith in the Lord.
