Mission to the moon

It is so hard to keep up with my blog. When I finally do have time to blog I have so many new adventures to write about. Every day is a day of growth, and I am always learning something new. Everyday I go to bed with so many new cherished memories. Even if I spend all day in the office.
You may wonder why I am in the office all the time if I am supposed to be a roadie. Before we travel telling the story of child soldiers we have a lot of training so we can know how to answer any questions and also be able to give new information on Invisible Children. Laren was telling us how other NGO's think it is crazy, because Invisible Children doesn't send out the people that have known the ends and outs of Invisible Children since the beginning, but instead they send out young adults who are trained in about a month. Yet, other NGO's are using starting to use the Roadie model, we must be doing something right.
I am proud to work for an organization that doesn't want to band aid a problem but wants to up root the problem. Unlike other non profits IC learned that to make a difference we need to get our young generations empowered. We don't just give to the people in Northern Uganda, but we teach them how to grow. So they can grow and never have a war like this again. It is such a gift to have the people that inspire the people around the world as your teachers.
We have so much to offer this year, we have been told this is not just another tour, but it is the tour setting out to end the war. his years Involvement with Invisible Children is so crucial. We have a small window of time to get state representative to co sign the bill and get Obama on board. Jason Russell told the roadies " This is our mission to the moon. " Like that giant leap for mankind on the moon, we are taking the mission to seeing the war end. To take steps towards peace and taking a giant leap to get those children rescued and Jospeph Kony to stand trial. That is why our tour is called The Rescue and Recovery Tour.
