Jonathan
Jonathan
Jonathan’s mother died in March 2007 and his father died some years earlier. He was cared for by an aunt and elderly grandmother. The two women were unable to care for Jonathan and asked the Rafiki Foundation for help. Jonathan was approved and came to live at the Rafiki Village Zambia in September of 2008. Jonathan is currently in the 8th grade. Jonathan believes Jesus is his Lord and Savior who died for him on the cross and took his sins away. He knows God has given him a new heart and made him His child. Jonathan has learned that God is always with him and that He is the greatest. The Lord wants him to make godly choices and change poor attitudes. In answer to Jonathan's prayer, God helped him pass his Grade 7 national exam and allowed him to move on to Grade 8.
