My Name is
Jehu
Jehu
Jehu's mother died of yellow fever and his father, a policeman, was killed in the Liberian war. After the death of their mother, Jehu and his sister, Miata, lived with their grandmother. Though she tried, their grandmother could not provide for their basic needs. Jehu and Miata were approved by social welfare and arrived at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2008. Jehu enjoys learning about science and hopes to be a pilot when he grows up. He knows Jesus as his high priest who will be with him for eternity. Psalm 119:106 has taught him that the peace of the world is temporary, but God's peace is everlasting and guards our hearts.
