Sam
Sam arrived at the Rafiki Village Rwanda in 2011 and soon benefited from the quality care, nutritious food, and loving family environment. He now attends the Rafiki School as a day student. Sam’s favorite day of each week is Sunday when he attends church and worships God with the congregation. After finishing his schooling, Sam hopes to become a technician. He plans to use this position to share the gospel with those he encounters. As Sam strives to imitate Christ each day, he prays that he will be a light in the world and a blessing to those he meets.
