Kyle
Kyle
Kyle was abandoned by his father shortly after he was born. He was given to a local babies' home called New Life Home Trust in 2005. No one came forward to claim him, and New Life had trouble finding him a permanent home. In 2007, Kyle arrived at the Rafiki Village Kenya. Kyle loves soccer and badminton, and he excels in math. He enjoys reading to others and shows great love for the Bible lessons, causing him to grow spiritually. He has been encouraged by Paul's words in Thessalonians to grow more and more by faith.
