Silas
Silas arrived at the Rafiki Village Ghana in 2010. Silas loves listening to stories, especially from the mothers and the short-term missionaries that come to visit the Village. History is his favorite subject in school. Silas thinks that he would like to be a soccer player when he grows up. He has learned from the Rafiki Bible Study that he should always be thankful to God because He loves us even when we disobey Him. Silas seeks to obey God and love Him with his whole heart.
