Destiny Africa

Tuesday night Gavin’s school chorus performed at a concert presented by Destiny Africa, a group of children from Uganda. I was so impressed by how great he looked up there with the group and how well he sang. One of those little indications that he is growing up!

The Destiny Africa group was so impressive. The performers are from among a group of orphans from war torn areas, slums, and AIDS affected families for whom Kampala Children's Center provides homes. Each home is headed by a mother and has no more than 12 children. The kids are never again referred to as orphans once they enter their new home and refer to each other as brothers and sisters. As you can see on their website, these children are given not only a home but a chance to develop a dream for their future which would not otherwise have been possible. It was such an honor to have them perform for us.
