My Name is
Jeff

Jeff
Jeff’s father died in 2003, and his mother died in 2005. Jeff and his brother, Samuel, then began living with their nineteen-year-old sister, who was soon unable to care for them. The brothers arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2007. They soon began to flourish in the security and love of their new home. Jeff knows that God desires for him to know and follow His Word, keeping it in his heart. Jeff works hard in school and his best subjects are business and language arts. Jeff hopes to finish his education and help others with theirs. He asks for prayer that he will "be someone in life and never forget the Lord in what I do."
