Watoto...

We had the privilege of hosting the Watoto Children's Choir in concert on Saturday and in our morning worship services this morning.

This group of 18 Ugandan children who ranged in age from 7 -12 truly blessed our hearts. The Holy Spirit was definitely evident in their authentic praise! Their stories were touching and challenging. All of them have been orphaned due to AIDs, civil war, or some other calamity.

Take a moment if you have time this week and read about the ministry of Watoto at www.watoto.com. This ministry is doing an incredible work to provide orphans with a healthy home environment and the opportunities that they need to become tomorrow's leaders of Africa.

For those of you who read this and live in Minnesota, you may want to try to catch them in concert this week. They are going to be several places in Mankato and the Twin Cities in the coming week. Check out their website for the schedule.

Have a great weekend and thank God for the blessings he has given you!
