My Name is
Esau
Esau
Esau's mother died while delivering his younger brother, Isaac, and his father died the next year in a car accident. The children's grandmother took them in, but she then passed herself. Social welfare services became involved and contacted the Rafiki Foundation on behalf of the two brothers. Esau and Isaac arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2010. Esau enjoys studying mathematics. He believes that it is important to do your best in school because studying hard will help you to be faithful with what you have been given by God. He hopes to be a General in the Liberia Army when he grows up. Esau loves Jesus as his King, Lord, and Savior. He knows that Jesus will give him eternal life.
