My Name is
Jack

Jack
After Jack’s mother died in 2006, he began living with his grandparents. His grandmother died soon after that. Though his grandfather did his best to care for him, he did not have a steady income to provide for Jack. Social services recommended Jack be placed in the Rafiki Village Zambia, and he arrived in 2007. Jack is known for often having a winsome smile on his face. He really enjoys reading novels, and he gains valuable insight from the characters in the stories. Jack believes that God has given him a new heart, saved him, and made him His child. He believes Jesus is the Son of God. Jack knows God wants him to obey, and he is learning to find answers to life's questions in the Bible.
