  1. The screening of "GO" at Ocoee was great. Most of the students ended up in tears by the end of the DVD. I'm very excited for the Art Show at the Dixion Center on May 16th. Invisible Children<3

  5. I can not wait till may 16th. I'm getting the word out to everyone. Also, I am a christian and my most favorite verse of scripture is John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosover believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.And then my next favorite verse is Psalms23:1-6 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul:he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the daays of my life:and i will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. The verses are my most favorits of all and the 23 Psalm is the one i learned on my own.

  7. This cause is amazing. My sister might be going to Africa and knowing that we are helping put a stop to this. And knowing that my sister might now be is danger is such a relief. We all need to help to bring the LRA down. We need to not let this just be a one time thing. But have it bwe something that we strive for everyday. "If you help the least of these my brothers, you are serving me" Is a quote from the Bible. You are serving the Lord and helping a group of people that need this more than anything right now. I can't wait to see how well we do!

  8. I'm so excited for May 16th, it is going to be a lot of fun and we're changing the lives of thousands of humans across the world. I think that this Art Show will help open up the eyes of people, to realize that they can make a difference. It takes one voice to be heard, and now we have many.

    My thought on the meeting we had last week on the children in Uganda really moved me. It made me think about others, and not my self. It changed the way I've looked and thought about alot of things it made me think that It's care that makes a difference, It's care that will change the way you look at things, It's care that changes communities, states, your countries, and other countries! It's care that will change someone's life! Only you can make the pride, to give care. -Cameron Touchstone "GBGOHG"

    my thoughts about "go" was it really changed how i felt about how i live.. i worry about getting good lookin cloths.. wen they dont evem a really any cloths on at all sometimes, and now i just realize how lucky i am to have parents who love me and care about me, when ,more then half the kids there in Uganda dont even get fed at night, they worry about starving.. so i think its really good that America is tryin to help the invisible children! keep up the good work ocoee middle(:

    When i watched the "go" video it made me realize how lucky i was to have a roof over my head and foodd on the table and a bed to sleep on. It really made me change the way i look at the world cause now im more AWARE of whats happenin around me! And im glad i see things different now. UGANDA!! UGANDA!!

  12. To many people in this world think to much about them selves. We need to take some of our own time and think bout other's. These children & familys need us. They need our help. We mean everything to them. They mean everything to me. I am goin to try & help them one way or another. Rather some one helps me or if no one helps. Im goin to change these childrens lives. They need to be happy & need to have a happy life like us.

  13. This program is to help the children in Unganda. When i saw a video about these children and what they have to do to survive everyday. It changed me when I saw children on the video hiding so they wouldnt get abducted. Some children dont have their parent there with them. They dont have a house to live in. And some strave to death. Even children my age or younger have been abducted and force to do things against their will. And we want to raise money to send to Unganda and help them build better schools.

  14. I am so moved by this whole invisible children thing. When i first heard about it i was very sad for these children. I knew i needed to help, but didnt really know where to start. Mr. Cretton let us watch to "Go" video. I was trying to hold back tears the whole time. That day i accepted my call to be a missionary. I am so excited to be apart of all this and i know that God has great things in store for my life. I cant wait to get money together to send to Uganda to help all the children and people.

  15. Invisible Children.<---- this has changed my life forever I will never be the same person and I am glad. I've watched so many videos, read so many poems and quotes and they truly inspire me. Our art exhibition will be amazing even if only 40 people come atleast we know we have all educated 40 people about this horrible war in Uganda. Tell everyone you know about this wonderful cause, and art exhibition because I know I have!!
    UGANDA-UGANDA-UGANDA!!
