Invisible Children


I’ll make this quick because I would rather you spend your time leaning about this movement than reading my blog, so here it goes:

Do you want to be a hero?

Do you like to do good things?

Do you love kids?

Have you always wanted to give to a charity, but just couldn’t part with your dollars?

I’m glad you said yes to all of those, because I’m about to help make them all come true.

You may have noticed a recent influx of internet activity on “KONY 2012.” I just learned about it 45 minutes ago. This is a movement called Invisible Children battling against an African rebel leader named Joseph Kony who builds his rebel “army” by abducting children, then forcing them to learn how to use guns, and then abduct even MORE children to make the army even larger, sometimes killing their own parents….all simply because he wants power. It’s a terrible thing happening. Can you imagine that kind of thing happening in the United States? Of course not. Because once the first child was kidnapped, national news would be all over it and the whole country would be looking for the guy. Unfortunately, Africa isn’t America… but YOU are. All the KONY 2012 people are trying to do is make stopping Joseph Kony a priority of American interest … and I believe it’s worth taking a couple of minutes out of my day to do a small part of spreading that hope.


Give to the Invisible Children project by keeping your money, but give the next 120 seconds of the Life God has given you by doing something to help spread this message.

It’s as easy as making your next facebook status read: “KONY 2012”. You know, just to get people wondering... Or if you really want to get fancy, you can even link or share some material to Invisible Children website. They don’t even want your money, (although donations are accepted) they just want your support.

I just learned about this and I’ve been inspired to do this. I hope you’ll be inspired to. It starts by clicking here.


So put on your cape, and be a hero. It’ll just take 120 seconds… maybe even less.

If you have 30 minutes to give, watch this film. thank you.
