We thought it was just another Sunday morning, but we were in for a surprise.

Yesterday at church, we saw an amazing choir performance by a group of Ugandan children from Watoto.

Watoto (which means "the children" in Swahili) is a project established in 1992 with the mission of rescuing children orphaned by war or disease in Uganda. By providing them with food and shelter, love and care, and more importantly, spiritual and academic training, Watoto equips these kids will the necessary live skills and moral values, so that they will one day grow up to make an impact on the future of Uganda, a country now struggling with disease, poverty and oppression.

And their children's choir was amazing. As described perfectly on their website, "Watoto's performances are a soulful blend of native African rhythms, contemporary gospel music and ethnic dance", and "through their lively and inspiring performances, the Watoto Children's Choir shares their unique experiences as well as their newfound joy and hope, which thrill and dazzle audiences everywhere". I, for one, was truely thrilled. These kids are so energetic and full of joy, and you wonder, except for God, who would have the power to bring such peace and happiness to these children, when each one of them had gone through so much tragedy in their life. When I see these children, I see God's glory. "I was without hope, but now God has given me a new life!", one of the Watoto kids said in his testimony.
