Betty came to Good Samaritan from Charazulu village, which isn’t far from the Children’s Home. She is in Form 1 or “ninth grade”. Betty is in the third position in her class. She takes her school work very seriously. Betty has a heart for helping those younger than her. She has taken two of the younger children (Rufina and Martha) “under her wing”. She helps them with their school work, does their hair and makes sure they are dressed nice for church. She has been chosen to stay with Miss Vickie a visitor from the states that will be serving at Good Samaritan for two months. Betty and Miss Vickie will stay at the Round House.
Joseph came to Good Samaritan from Zomba. His father was one of the Good Samaritan Pastors. When his father died, he was left alone in his village. At this time the Good Samaritan Children’s Home was in progress but not yet opened. The Good Samaritan Staff told Joseph that once the Children’s Home was opened he could have a home there. Joseph is in Form 2 or “tenth grade”. He is in position one in his class. Joseph wakes up before 5am every morning to spend time studying. He recently was thrilled to receive a calculator from Brother Gentry. Joseph is a self initiator and is often found doing chores without being asked. Joseph is not only a good example to his peers but he takes it upon himself to guide the younger ones. Joseph hopes to be employed at Good Samaritan as a Cargiver to the boys when he finishes school.
