e-News - Inspiring movie to send 34 kids to school! | |
Dear Village of Love Supporter, In his album, “War Child,” Emmanuel Jal says, “I believe.. I have survived.. for a reason.. to tell my story.. to touch lives..” Don’t miss this chance to hear and be touched by his story in the movie, “War Child!” The subject matter of child soldiers is dark, but the movie is surprisingly uplifting. Jal’s personality mesmerises: his humility, sincerity, truth-telling, and total self giving in seeking a better life for African children. Even at age seven Jal was singled out by journalists to be the children’s spokesperson. See remarkable recovered footage of seven year old Jal in a U.N. camp.
