Yesterday *November 19th* Amy and another guy came to my school and talked about this… I thought about all those kids and wanted to sign the petition. As a 9th grader I feel that Joseph Kony is a very bad man and what he is doing should be put to a stop. Uganda doesn’t have to suffer, and niether do the familys of the children that have been abducted. Stop Joseph Kony Today!

I never met him but I volunteer for IC and have been in love with the cause for years, just like Rob was. Thank you for the beautiful dedication. The world needs more people like you.

hey Andrew, it was good meeting you today! I go to BCHS, I am the one wearing the blue and yellow beanie! Well I think that you and your team did an AWESOME job today 11-19-09 and even though there might not have been many people at the meeting, I know for a fact that you got people thinking! Like my friend Paige was saying, you made such an impact on our school, that is all we could talk about for the rest of the day! You really did get the point across and that we as people need to join forces to help our brothers in other countries because they are just like us! They would do the same for us! Again great job! Keep me updated!

Thanks for speaking to us,
Erin

I love invisible children more… with me is David Waugh a 16 year old boy who travelled from Rhode island. He didn’t know about the LRA, or IC but he received an email from IC about HMSD meeting, he traveled against all odds to come to the meeting. Yes he is one of the amazing voices we had and know that we are going to have for this great movement.
God bless you
Lydia

This is so powerful and inspirational!! This gives me hope that this generation is not lost.. seeing these young kids out there making a difference is so uplifting! I wasn’t able to attend a meeting, but I was emailing my butt of all day urging people to contact our Congressmen & women. Hope is not lost.. but getting stronger by the day. Thank you for all you guys do.. you are amazing!

I am 17 years old, When i was 9, 10 even 11 years old i was playing football out in the garden having FUN! At 17 i have happy memories to look back on. Right now a child is probably being abducted maybe worse he or she has just been killed, maybe the ones being killed are the lucky ones they don’t have to suffer anymore thats it over for them. The ones that grow up and look back at 17 years old to when they were 9, 10 even 11 years old they don’t remember kicking a ball laughing, they remember crying, violence, killing. NO ONE in the world today has the right to be the person causing this. The difference between 6,692,030,276 human beings and 1 insignificant person is huge, Joseph Kony is not a human being! So if one person can destroy so many life’s, then 6 billion can most certainly destroy one, His!

My daughter attended a church camp (camp hammer) when she first heard of Invisible Chilren, she was so inspired, she now wants to start a group at her high school… I didn’t know Rob but he sounds like he was an incredible young energetic person. I know his family must be very proud of his dedication to this cause. He is still doing much needed work at his “Home In Heaven” ~Blessings~ Sheri

Not only do I sign this petition to stop Joseph Kony, I sign it to endorse the real message of love met in Jesus Christ. Not at any point in Jesus’ ministry did he advocate enslavement and abuse of children. We must not only protect the precious men, women and children of Uganda but we must also protect the freedom to live justly and respectfully. And as much as our feelings and emotions get the best of us, Jesus did preach in his Sermon on the Mount regarding our enemies. We must remember his desire for us to love everyone, including our enemies (this, however, does not mean condoning violence and of course consequences arise as a result of bad choices by the rebels):

Matthew 5:43″You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[h] and hate your enemy.’ 44But I tell you: Love your enemies[i] and pray for those who persecute you, 45that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Let us love the helpless children, and let’s remember that even the worst of people God can take and make out of him/her a miracle (look at Moses…he was a murderer! look at David…he was an adulterer!…look at Paul…he was a Christian killer!). Vengeance is God’s…let us love one another in peace.

May God’s grace cover the sweet, precious children who need the arms of a Loving Savior. Amen.

Comment on The American Homeless: Invisible in the Land of Milk and Honey by Tony Boenzi

Kinda odd to see this posted so close to a fundraiser that was organized by myself and my students for Schools for Schools (San Jacinto Valley Academy for Keyo Secondary). We were working closely with a restaurant to raise money for IC, we had to sell 100 tickets for a pancake breakfast at 10 dollars a piece (5 goes to the restaurant and 5 goes to IC) but we didn’t sell 100, we only sold about 60 ($600 total)…meaning we raised the $500 to have the breakfast but didn’t have the mouths to feed. So another teacher and myself invited a local homeless shelter to the breakfast and we fed about 8 families/40 individuals who are currently homeless…it was a very powerful experience for myself, my students, and helped raise awareness for both causes through some meaningful dialogues…there’s nothing better than good food, good conversations, and good company.
