Step One: Go to Good search Type in "Invisible Children."
Step Two: Click on the link to the Invisible Children GOOGLE VIDEO, and take 45 minutes to watch and make your self aware of whats going on and has been for year in Northern Uganda.
There are millions of children displaced in Uganda, disapeared, vanished... where? I know alot of poeple would just say this is Africa, thats the way it is... but I beg to differ...
Children all over the world, poeple deserve the same rights, human rights, and life style, color race or country shoulnd't make is ok to be slaughtered, raped, and destroyed as a child.
Thousands of children are abduicted by the "Lords Resistence Army" in Uganada, they mostly abduct children between the AGES OF 5-12, because they are moldable at theat age. The first thing that happens when the children arive at the LRA's Camp tied up is, brutal murder, the children have to kill in order to be saved, they are forced to stand and watch or, to do it them selves.
Many children in rehab now have gone mentaly retarded because of the trama they've gone through while in the LRA.
Please read and find out whats happening in the world. Keep your self informed!
If you already are, great! Spread the news!

Thank you Kath (or Vinj?) for sharing that info with us. I will make a point of visiting the site and watching the video.
One day soon, when the time is right, I will share with you and the rest of the family (other than Michael who already knows) a burden that has been on my heart for the past 5 1/2 years. It's incredible and I don't know yet what it means, but I agree with you when you say that it doesn't matter that you are black or white, young or old or from a certain country - that you should be treated like a human being. Treated with respect and dignity, and not like a piece of trash.
Thanks again for sharing this...
Love you.
Hey you two,
Thanks for posting this blog. I am going to watch the video this afternoon. I found the website of this couple from Calgary who is doing community development stuff in South Africa right now. Their website is: http://www.unhushed.com
There was an article about them in the Calgary Herald (or whatever the newspaper is called there:)) Just thought they might be a cool resource for you to have. I'll call soon, just let me know when is good for you. Love you both!
