What Can We DO?

Today at the College assembly we were shown a movie about the children living in North Uganda; how they suffer under the civil war, how they are being abducted to become child soldiers trained to kill other human beings at the age of as young as 8 years old.
The movie was made by a a broup of young Americans who went to Uganda.

I found a clip on youtube that shows just a part of what the movie is about.



I was amazed at how these children suffering in these horrible circumstances were still able to smile and even be thankful to God for the little miracles of each day. it reminded me of how grateful i should be but also of how much still needs to be done in this unjust world of exploitation.


We cannot ignore the suffering any longer!
