AFRICAN CHILDRENS CHOIR: 2008 "This Little Light of Mine"

We are great supporters of the African Childrens Choir and love whenever they have a chance to come to NYC on their tour. We love opportunities to see them - esp. when they come and stay a significant time with us! (Tony, our little LIGHT - he has a BRIGHT SMILE on the right side! love this kid - he's contagious!!)

The kids are very talented and blessed but lets be careful not use their talents for our entertainment...this looks a lil too much.

@trice419 The first Choir was formed in 1984, selected from orphaned and vulnerable children in the Kampala and Luwero areas of Uganda. After the Choir was trained to perform and readied for living in new and different cultures, the children traveled from Uganda to tour amongst the North American Church communities.

@trice419 They immediately impressed audiences with their vibrancy and outstanding musical talent. They quickly became a mouthpiece for the plight of the many thousands of vulnerable children like them in Uganda. The funds they earned through donations provided for their own support and education and more!

The proceeds of the first ACC tour also funded the building of an orphanage back in Kampala from which a second African Children’s Choir was selected.

@trice419 -- now 26yrs later...this is still what they do! I've met MANY of the children after they have grown into mature AMAZING adults - helping others - and changing the plight of their families and communities back home.

Surely this Entertainment is NOT WORSHIP....!

(John 4:23-24) But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him.

(Joh 4:24) God is a spirit, and they who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.

@ROGER459 As far as this NOT being worship -- how can WE measure that...Worship is 'personal' - btwn the worshipper & God. I've seen the lives of the children transformed...and grow up to be AMAZING adults who LOVE and serve God!

[stingraybch]

Love these children's enthusiasm and talent. It's good that their music is always joyful and positive. They lift the listener's spirit.

@ROGER459 It's worship if the Lord is in your heart! Look through all the psalms and count the times the Bible tells us to dance in praise of the Lord. As for what is in other people's heart and spirit, I am not their judge.

[summerchick621]

I just don't understand how people can take something like this and turn it into something negative. Some people must be really miserable.

[summerchick621]

@ROGER459 you kinda didn't answer my question your not god so you can not determine or judge what is or what isn't Worship.

p.s Anybody can quote the word of the bible but if you do not live by those words it is useless.

(Isaiah 8:20) To the Law = and to the testimony! = If = they do NOT speak according TO this Word, = it is because NO light = is in them.
