My Name is
Innocent

Innocent
Innocent’s mother died in 2005, and his father abandoned him, leaving him in the care of an uncle who also abandoned him as a child. Innocent was approved by social welfare services to join the Rafiki Village Malawi in 2008. He soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving environment at the Village. Innocent has always enjoyed riddles and wordplay, and he excels in language arts class. He trusts Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior. Innocent has learned from studying Romans that because Jesus has broken the power of sin, he can overcome sinful desires and choose the right path.
