The introduction begins "Set in war-ravaged Northern Uganda, the Oscar nominated War Dance will touch your heart with a real-life story about a group of children whose love of music brings joy, excitement and hope back into their poverty-stricken lives."
We loved this documentary. It was very well done. I would recommend it to anyone interested in Africa and especially Uganda. Would anyone like to borrow it? If you would, we just ask to receive it back in a month so that we can share it with others.
Looks wonderful! We'd love to borrow it -but can wait in line, if there is someone else who would like to see it too!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Shonni!
I watched that on Netflix. Its available for "play instantly." I agree, its really great! Opened my eyes to a whole world I could never imagine. The things those children survive through and still live sane lives is incredible. After watching it my heart tugged at Uganda for our next adoption.
ReplyDeleteI would love to borrow it as well. Our family leaves in 4½ months to go to a missionary training boot camp and then we're off to Uganda (Lord willing!). I, too, can wait in line!
ReplyDeleteBtw, my daughter LOVED the tent silk!! Such a great gift.
Also I have a little gift I'm gonna mail to you soon. We're cleaning and purging (preparing for Africa) and I have something that I want to pass on to you. Ü It makes me think of your family.
I have your address already, from mailing my check, so hopefully I'll get it in the mail soon!
Hugs from AR~

Love that doc!!!! ; )
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, friend...that sounds amazing. I may just have to get us a copy :)
ReplyDeleteShonni, I got your post on my blog. I talked to Darren about you last night and I will probably be calling you as I try and figure out the unique adoption laws in Colorado! Thanks for being willing to help! Blessings! Your family is BEAUTIFUL!!!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a great film! I'd love to see it BUT I can't borrow it because I have issues with returning things!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment on my blog- you new exactly what I meant- we had been working on bringing home a little one with a severe heart condition on a medical visa-I felt very guided by God to do this but it did put us a little over the edge on the busy scale. God directed the little boy in a different direction - so we are currently praying for healing for him.
I will try to buy a copy in Kampala. Soon we will be living and ministering among these people. And as you know, two of our sons are survivors of the war in Northern Uganda.
ReplyDeleteI would love to borrow it sometime. Just found your blog. Your family is beautiful!
