My Name is
Martin
Martin
Martin was abandoned in May 2002 when he was two years old. He arrived at the Rafiki Village Uganda in 2004. Martin quickly adjusted well to his new surroundings. Now, Martin’s favorite school subject is science. He also reads widely and excels at English and literature. During his free time, he enjoys playing basketball. Martin would like to become a pilot someday. He chose John 13:33 as his favorite Bible verse because “it tells me Jesus is still with us.” Martin desires to grow spiritually mature and enjoy God more.
