My Name is
Samuel
Samuel
Samuel’s father died in 2003, and his mother died in 2005. Samuel and his brother Jeff then began living with their nineteen-year-old sister, but she was unable to care for them. The boys arrived at the Rafiki Village Zambia in 2007 and soon flourished in the security and love of their new home. Samuel studies hard and is often on the honor roll. He believes Jesus is the eternal Son of God who was sent to save him from his sins and give him new life. Samuel knows that God gave him a new heart, saved him, and made him His child, because he asked God to save him and trusts Him to keep His promise. Samuel is learning to find answers in the Bible to the deep questions he has regarding his identity and purpose in life.
