My Name is
Moses
Moses
Moses’s mother died shortly after she gave birth to him. His father abandoned him, leaving him in the care of a local pastor. The pastor heard of the Rafiki Village through a Rafiki partner church in Accra. Moses was then referred by social welfare services to Rafiki. He arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2005. He soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving environment at the Village. Moses has a great sense of humor. His favorite hymn is "Jesus, What a Friend for Sinners" because it reminds him that Jesus forgives and promises to be with him to the end.
