After an investigation by a social welfare officer, it was agreed that the siblings should be moved to the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2010. They soon began to thrive in their new environment with nutritious food, a bed of their own, and the opportunity to attend school. Gideon enjoys math and works hard in school. Gideon marvels at God's power, knowing no one can take His place. He has made a commitment to love God and serve Him; he desires to live a life pleasing to God.
