My Name is
Paul
Paul
Paul's mother abandoned him at a young age, and his father remains unknown. Upon arriving at the Rafiki Village Liberia in 2012, it was learned that Paul's living situation with his former caretakers was unsafe. At the Village, Paul enjoys learning about science and how to keep one's body healthy. For this reason, he wants to be a doctor when he grows up. Paul's favorite Bible verse is 2 Thessalonians 2:3 because it teaches him to be watchful and not deceived by anyone about the coming of Christ.
