My Name is
Paul
Paul
Paul was brought to a local children’s home in 1999 by a neighboring pastor. Details on how he was abandoned are not known. Paul arrived at his new home at the Rafiki Village Kenya in April 2004. Paul loves serving God. He enjoys going to Sunday School and reading the Bible. He has displayed interest in becoming a pastor one day. He is courageous and leads the whole school assembly in singing the hymn of the week. He also works in unity with others regardless of age. Paul is currently living and working at the village earning money. He works with the plant and maintenance crew and is getting hands-on training. Paul is not able to go to training outside of the village yet. We are still considering what options he might pursue in a training program.
