Jeff
Jeff
Jeff’s father died in 2003 and his mother in 2005. Jeff and his brother Samuel then began living with their nineteen-year-old sister, but she was unable to care for them. In 2007 the boys were placed in Rafiki Village Zambia where they flourished with the security, food, and love of their new home. Now in Grade 9, Jeff knows that God desires 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."
