Surafel
Surafel and his sister, Fortuna, where left in the care of an uncle when their mother and father died. Their uncle struggled to care for the children and asked the Rafiki Foundation for help. Fortuna and Surafel arrived at their new home in Rafiki Village Ethiopia in August 2010. They soon happily adjusted to the new environment and their Rafiki family. After Surafel arrived, he made good progress in school and loved to sing many hymns and songs, especially “Jesus Loves Me.” He now has a bright hope and a future and is eager to learn more about God. He has a good understanding of the Gospel. Surafel enjoys singing hymns during family devotions. He has shown progress in his spiritual growth. His favorite Scripture verse is Colossians 4:18.
