The Young Africans present Our African Dream in Oakdale!
February 11 &12, 2012 (Oakdale, CA): The internationally acclaimed African Children's presents the Young African's in Our African Dream tour at River Oak Grace Community Church on Saturday, February 11th at 6:00 pm and Sunday, February 12th at 9:00 & 11:00 am.
The Young Africans are a gifted group of singers, musicians and dancers who were all once a part of the world-renowned African Children's Choir. Now 17-21 years old and more talented than ever, they are poised to fulfill their promise and make a difference in their communities back home. They are thrilled to share what God has been doing in their lives.
OUR AFRICAN DREAM is a unique, powerful, and uplifting presentation that showcases the best of African dance and music, while also bringing new, vibrant life to American spirituals, contemporary worship songs and of course gospel!
Proceeds from concert performances allow the African Children's Choir to raise global awareness of the plight of the millions of orphaned and abandoned children in Africa. Donations directly support the expansion of sponsorship and education programs for both the current Choir children and the thousands of other students they represent.
The Music for Life Institute's (MFLI) purpose is to help create new leadership for tomorrow's Africa. Working in seven African countries, MFLI has educated over 52,000 children and impacted the lives of over 100,000 people through its relief and development programs during its history. The African Children's Choir is MFLI's major international program.
In addition to education the Choir finances numerous relief and development projects throughout Africa, including the Music for Life Centers in AIDS-devastated South Africa, and food relief containers to war-torn Sudan.
Concerts are free and open to all. A free-will offering is taken at the performance to support African Children's Choir programs. Please come and partner with us to make an impact in the lives of these precious children and their country.
