My Name is
Timothy
Timothy
Timothy’s father died in 2002 of whooping cough, and his mother died several months later after a brief period of illness. Timothy was then cared for by a relation of his mother who was unemployed and unable to care for him. He, along with his sister Tracy, arrived at the Rafiki Village Nigeria in 2005. Timothy's favorite class is art; he is a budding young artist who loves to draw and paint. He desires to learn to love God more each day. Timothy's favorite Bible verse is 2 Corinthians 5:17 because it teaches him that anyone who is in Christ is a new creation. His favorite hymn is "Let All Things Now Living."
