Today in chapel we had a group of orphans from Uganda (that's in Africa for those of you who didn't know) come, sing and dance. It was really cool. They did a couple praise songs in English, but most of their songs were in their native tongues. They also did a couple of their tribal dances.
Yesterday, however, was the really cool part. The kids(ten of them ranging from 9 to 13 years of age) were on campus for the sound check in the chapel, so they came to our choir class. That's when we got to see a whole bunch of their tribal dances and songs. We were able to sing for them as well, but that wasn't nearly as interesting. These Kids had so much energy and talent. Sure, they may not have the most classically trained voices, but they sure knew how to play those drums. And they danced and sang (at the same time) with such ease and energy. Not an ounce of fear or nervousness could be seen on their bright smiling faces. It was truly a site to behold.

Did you get to go to the Voice Class Seminar Tuesday?
Yes, indeed I did. It was very informational.
Kin, it's a very small world. Check out Oregon in Rwanda at:
