Invisible Children

I think it's common for hearts to not be pierced with matters relating to others' pain in another part of the country or world if a face/heart/story isn't attached to the suffering...one way to increase awareness of suffering is for people to become acquainted with the faces and human stories behind the suffering. (That being said, I think it can also be easy to ignore, or lack attentiveness to the inner pain of a friend or loved one. )

If you'd like to catch a glimpse of the situation of the child soliders of Uganda, if you know me and aren't too geographically far, feel free to borrow an Invisible Children or World Vision DVD that touches upon that situation...or feel free to watch the Invisible Children video on the following website:
