My Name is
Emmanuel
Emmanuel
Little is known about Emmanuel's life before coming to the Rafiki Village Rwanda. There were no family members who were able to care for Emmanuel. After an investigation, Social Welfare gave approval for Emmanuel to be placed at the Rafiki Village in 2010. He soon thrived in his new environment with nutritious food, a bed of his own, and a loving Rafiki family. He attends school and has a bright future and hope, but more importantly, he has knowledge of God. He has learned how to pray hard, and He knows that God is patient with His people. He continues to grow in his faith and seeks opportunities to help others.
