Abaana New Life Choir perform at St John’s Parish, Moira
The Abaana New Life Choir put on a great showing of singing and dancing in front of a large audience at St John’s Parish, Moira on Wednesday 1st March.
The choir, made up of 20 children from all over Uganda, performed a range of Uganda and English gospel songs accompanied with lively dancing and drums. The concert also included informative video clips showing how the work of Abaana is transforming lives in Uganda. Through this tour Abaana hopes to be able to sponsor another 300 children and rescue more children from the streets.
Speaking on the event Rector of St John’s, Rev. Joanne Megarrel said, “What a wonderful experience it has been to welcome the Abaana New Life Choir to our church family in Moira! The host families where the children are staying have been as blessed as they have sought to be a blessing and the whole choir’s infectious, joyous faith has been an inspiration to us all.”
The choir arrived in Northern Ireland at the beginning of February and will be performing concerts throughout the UK and Ireland until the end of May. For more information on the choir concert dates go to www.abaana.org/choirdates
