Today I feel like sharing with y'all about the African Hearts concert we went to! What an incredible fun experience!
After a long day of working in the village we were invited to the boys concert. These boys who were once on the street learn to play brass instruments and then do concerts to raise money. What beautiful sounds they made. It brought chills to me thinking about all of these boys once living on the street...and now look at them! They really are miracles and have such a bright future ahead of them.
This is Abbey. He is an unseen Hero of this world...
He is the director of African Hearts.
It is so apparent that he absolutely loves these boys.
His love for God is incredible
I can't wait to see Abbey again!
Waiting for the concert to start...
yes, we did get friendship rings...
and yes i do love this girl so so much and really want to see her
...RIGHT NOW.
After much anticipation finally the boys walked out...
and did they look dapper or what? See those handsome
red outfits? Pastor Dwight's church gave them money
to buy uniforms...and this was there first night to wear them!
They were so proud!
And did I mention...that we had fun!? So much fun.
There was continual dancing and whooping and hollaring :)
Look at George as he breaks it down!
Kenny and beautiful Sandra dancing away!
I just thought this was cute...
Towards the end of the concert these acrobats came out and showed us what they could do! At times I had to hold my breath because some of the stunts looked so dangerous! They were fun to watch!
And as it got darker the dancing continued on! Towards the end everybody was out in the grass dancing away while it was pitch black. The boys would one at a time get in the middle of our big circle and dance or do the worm and we'd all scream, clap and jump up and down for them! It was so much fun to just not have a care in the world and enjoy a fun night with friends.
It truly was one of the most fun nights...and one that I will never forget!
