Making Noise In the Schools

img_0018-418x314This week, we went with a team of our leaders to some schools promoting the upcoming youth fest on July 16. The students were excited to hear about the event and cheered loudly when we informed them that the admission is free. The youth fest is a special day when we gather the students (thousands!) together from all the school where we’ve been teaching Walk Pure, for a day of fun and games and specifically to reinforce the message of purity. Help us make this day a reality for these students…$2500 still needed. Give to reach youth in Kampala schools.
