African Children's Choir

Pamela
Vicki

    On Monday, May 9th, our family got to go to our Church to see the African Children's Choir preform. The kids were from ages 8-11. All of them were saved from poverty and all of them are orphans. The African Children's choir gives them an education, food and other things they will need. When I saw them preform, I noticed that even though they were orphans that were saved from poverty, they were bouncing with joy. They danced like nobodies business. They were so awesome. When I saw them, it made me grin with happiness. After the concert, a few family's, including ours, took home to kids. Ours were named Pamela and Vicki and they were eight years old. They were so grateful and they didn't mind what kind of car we had, or how our house looked. They ate without complaining and they didn't argue when their chaperone's asked them to do something. They call their chaperone's "Auntie", or "Uncle". They even called my mom and dad by those names. Having in my house made me want to be more grateful with the food I had even though I didn't like it because it is food for your body and its OK if you don't like it. I have gotten a heart for Africa and when I grow up, I want to help Uganda, were Pamela and Vicki are from. I really enjoyed having them at my house and hopefully, I can help in Uganda later in my life.
