My Name is
Peter
Peter
Both Peter's mother and father died when he was an infant. Social welfare services referred him to the Rafiki Village Kenya, and he arrived at the Village in 2007. He soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving environment at the Village. Peter now helps to ensure that class is secure by closing windows and putting things in their proper place once a lesson is finished. He is a social young man who is well-loved around the Village. He does well in science and language arts. Peter continues to grow in character as he learns more about God, and he strives to put God first in his life.
