Paul
Paul
Paul's mother was sick and admitted him and his twin brother, Isaac, to a transient home in Lusaka, Zambia in July 2012. The boys' mother passed away within the same year. The father was also sick and unemployed, and he abandoned the boys. They arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in November 2013. Paul enjoys a good book and is an avid reader. Paul believes Jesus is the Son of God and his Redeemer. He knows the Bible is the Word of God. He continues to pray for the strength to be diligent in his studies and in knowing God.
