Samuel
Samuel was found wandering the streets of his village when he was two years old. Little is known about his family. He arrived at the Rafiki Village Kenya in 2003. Samuel soon proved to be a kind, polite, and hard-working young man. He enjoys researching challenging topics and subjects. He does well in every academic subject, but he especially loves science and mathematics. Samuel has come to know that God is in control of everything, and he understands that he has experienced God's protection in his life.
