My Darling Boys

I have the amazing privilege of living and working with these precious boys in a children's center with Iris Ministries in Maputo, Mozambique. Here's your chance to get to know a little bit about them . . .

Rafin

Rafin’s birthdate is June 9, 1997. His has an older brother who lives here in our center. His mother is deceased and his father is quite elderly, in his 60s I believe and has a disability that prevents him from working. He does not have a home to care for Rafin in. Rafin is the boy I like to say cannot tell a lie. I can’t be 100% sure but he always seems to tell the truth, even when he’s done something wrong, which is often. It’s like I can watch him try and lie but he ends up telling the truth. He is fun-loving and cheerful but gets picked on quite a bit by others. He loves chicken and rice and says he wants to be a driver when he grows up.

About Me

My Photo
Laura Anderson
Maputo, Mozambique
A few excerpts from my life's To-Do list: 1. Find a dead body. 2. Return a lost pet to it's owner. 3. Spend a year of my life working at an orphanage. Well, it's been over six years now and I'm loving living one of my dreams, living and working with 30 boys, ages 4-9, in a childrens center in Maputo, Mozambique! I'm far from my home in the US but love my life here with my boys. (And two out of three of those goals ain't bad!)
