what the world needs now

Annnnnd, finally here are the pictures from our awesome weekend of having the African Children's Choir back in Jacksonville. The Jacksonville Childrens Chorus (who I work for) was able to do a joint concert with the ACC (who I used to work for). It was sooo much fun and the concert was a smash hit! Also, 5 of the children from this group are returners from a previous tour that I worked on! So I got to reunite with those kids who I had spent so much time with in 2004/2005. It was a blast! We had the three boys from choir #26 (my choir) stay with us at the house and they had so much fun with Bella and Stephen. So, now Stephen and I are just trying to figure out how to raise the money to take a trip to Uganda before these kids turn 20! Wish us luck! :-)

We took the boys to the park and we had such a fun time!


Then we went for a walk downtown by the river. Ah, Jacksonville! From left:
Elijah Bwojji, Emmanuel Opolot, and Mark Tumukunde

And the other two children from our tour: Rita Kansiime and Suzan Nakandi!


Yay for sweet fun children!

and so it goes...

So here's the follow up to our church-project gas buy down. It was really fun and successful in that we were able to impact about 200 different families in just over 2 hours! Yay!

Here's the link:


And if you watch the video carefully, you can see me! Here's a few fun pictures of our own!
Enjoy!


There's me in the long grey shorts.
