My Name is
Wanangwa
Wanangwa
By 2007, Wanangwa had lost both of his parents to fatal illnesses. He was taken in by his impoverished, elderly grandmother who, though she tried, could not care for his basic needs. Wanangwa came to the Rafiki Village Malawi in November 2007. Wanangwa soon proved to be a good student who enjoys asking questions in class. He is grateful to Jesus for His love and mercies. After studying Romans, Wanangwa strives to love others with brotherly affection and bear the marks of a true Christian.
