Moses
Moses
Moses’s mother died shortly after giving birth to him. The father is an impoverished farmer and had no means to care for a new baby as well as his four other children. The baby was abandoned in the care of a local pastor. He heard of the Rafiki Village through a Rafiki partner church in Accra. Moses was referred by social welfare to Rafiki and in June 2005 he was brought to his new home at Rafiki Village Ghana. Moses is a quiet and shy little boy, but he has a great sense of humor when he opens up.
