Job Ayuba
Job was orphaned when his mother died in 2003. His father passed away two years earlier. Job and his older sister, Lydia, lived with their elderly grandmother, who was no longer able to provide care for the two young children. An aunt referred them to Rafiki, and they arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2003. Job continues to pray for spiritual maturity and an increasing love for God. He strives to please God with his life, and Rafiki looks forward to witnessing how God uses him.
