As a survivor of the war and devastation in Sudan, Peter eventually found himself in Ethiopia and Kenya where he was classified as a “lost boy” and adopted by the United States.

In addition to sharing his personal story, Peter passes on some of the wisdom that his father had passed on to him before his death.

Having returned to a hero’s welcome as a successful American college graduate, Peter took for himself a wife from among his people. He returned to the United States and began working towards purchasing cows to provide a dowry in order to bring his wife to America.
