My Name is
Sean

Sean
Sean’s mother abandoned him after his father was put in prison. He lived with his elderly and impoverished grandfather for a while until his father was released from prison. His grandfather, concerned for Sean's welfare and safety if he was placed in the care of the father, asked Social Services to place him in another setting. He arrived at the Rafiki Village in Uganda in 2005. Sean is very musically talented; he can play a number of instruments and loves to sing of all the God has done in his life. He would like to become a professional musician and believes God is leading him to perform worship music. Sean continues to grow stronger in his faith in the Lord. He seeks to bear the fruit of the spirit all the days of his life, and he prays for a heart of love, obedience, and forgiveness.
