My Name is
Morris
Morris
Morris’ was brought to an orphanage in Kitui in April, 2003 after both his parents died. He was brought to the Rafiki Village Kenya that same year. Morris soon proved to be a young man who seeks to serve others. Through studying the Bible each day, Morris has learned that we should be truthful and ready at all times because we do not know the day or the hour that Jesus will return. Morris has learned to pray earnestly so God may fulfill his every need. He continues to pray to love God more, excel in his studies, and be an example to younger children in the Village.
