Lackson
Lackson
Lackson became a double orphan at age 6 when both his mother and father died. Lackson was taken in by a woman from his church, but she was unable to provide for him. Social welfare recommended that Lackson be brought to the Rafiki Village Zambia, and he arrived in 2007. Lackson knows God has given him a new heart, saved him, and made him His child. He has learned from God's Word that God wants him to live for Christ, make godly choices, and give Him his best. He is learning to find answers in the Bible for life's meaning. Lackson is a top student and a quiet, introspective young man who aspires to excel in all areas. He is a good role model for the other students, and he enjoys running and playing soccer.
