My Name is
Rabson
Rabson
Rabson and his brother, Vincent, lived with their grandmother after their parents died in 2011. The boys' grandmother was a widow. She cared for six of her own children, six orphaned grandchildren, and her own elderly mother in a very small home at the time. Though she tried, she could not provide for the children's basic needs and sought help. Rabson and his brother arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2013. Rabson enjoys playing baseball with his friends when his studies are done. He believes Jesus is the true Son of God who came to save us from our sins, and he knows that the Bible is the Word of God. It is the story of God's creation and the Lord Jesus Christ. Rabson asks God to protect and guide him. He is known for his humility around the Rafiki Village.
