Watoto Children’s Choir

Watoto Children's Choir
My husband Jim and I are now unpacked and have guest rooms thanks to our excitement about housing a few members of the Watoto Children's Choir and their support team next week.  We moved to Gilford, NH a little over a year ago and the rooms looked more like storage lockers up till a couple days ago.

Watoto in Swahili means “Children”.

According to their website, “Watoto is a Church based organisation that cares for orphans and widows in Uganda. Our goal is to raise the next generation of Ugandan leaders.”

Their moto: Rescue, Raise, and Rebuild

Rescue – widows and orphans
Raise – in homes, with education and medical services
Rebuild – create an eco-friendly, self-sustaining economy

The Watoto Children’s Choir is coming to Gilford to share their stories and a message of hope and transformation through a lively performance of Ugandan music.

If you’re in the area and would like to join us, the concert is on:

Sunday, October 7 at 7:00pm.
First United Methodist Church Gilford/Laconia
18 Wesley Way, Gilford, NH

There might be a performance near you - they're in Massachusetts starting this week:  https://www.watoto.com/app/choir/calendar?start=2018-10-01#calendar
