Watoto Children's Choir

Mikaelyn and I had the privilege of helping to serve dinner to the Watoto Children's Choir when they came to Westminster Chapel to perform on Saturday evening. The Uganda team put together a spaghetti dinner with garlic bread and lemonade as well as strawberry shortcake for dessert. Let me re-phrase that...Gretchen, one of my teammates, put together all the details and went shopping and cooked for the kids...I was mearly a by-stander that came to help serve the kids and help out where I could. We couldn't have pulled this off without Gretchen, she has a true servants heart!!

Anyway, Mikaelyn LOVED these children and felt so good about being part of the group (Thank you Gretchen for including her) by serving the children their dinner as well as dessert and then watching them sing and dance. She memorized a few of their songs within seconds and danced like she was having such a great time! The children were polite, sweet and beautiful and I loved every minute that we were able to spend with them. It made me miss being in Uganda SO much, but opened my eyes to another organization there that I would love to get involved with in time. The kids are going to be in town for the next few weeks and Mikaelyn and I hope to go see another concert before they head home the beginning of July.
