My Name is
Isaiah
Isaiah
Isaiah was placed into his grandparents' care following the death of his parents. However, they soon became too old to care for him, and he was given to the care of his aunt. She had six of her own children and was also unable to properly care for Isaiah, so she sought help. Isaiah arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2006. Isaiah is a good student who enjoys school. He describes education as a process of learning, showing a good attitude, and behaving well. He has learned about Jesus personally through the Rafiki Bible Study. God has shown Isaiah His power, love, and patience through the Scriptures. He desires to serve God and spread the gospel when he is outside of Rafiki and to love and obey God, even when it is difficult.
