SPEAK UP!

As Father's Day approaches, and since I will soon become a father, I have become more aware, through various recent experiences, of those without fathers. In Northern Uganda children are being kidnapped in the night to become unwilling soldiers in a fight they want nothing to do with. If they are able to escape "The Lords Resistance Army" and return to their village, most find that their families were slaughtered the same night they were taken.

So, I invite you to speak up for the fatherless. Sign the "Children Should Never Be Soldiers" declaration and support the fatherless, wherever you can. An inspiring story of these children is told in the film "War Dance". Check it out if it's in your area.

Have a great weekend.
