The experience of travelling on a choir helps the children to develop confidence and boldness, as well as broadening their worldview. The choirs are part of the leadership training program of Watoto Child Care Ministries, which currently cares for more than 3,000 children living in family settings rather than an institution.
Along with energetic singing and dancing, the children will share inspiring stories of how their lives have been changed and how they have been called into a life of purpose to transform their communities. The show is an expression of joy from children who have been rescued after losing one or both parents to live in one of three Watoto villages. Their stories are journeys from despair to hope and from fear to faith.
"I am excited to be a part of We Will Go," said Esther Kahangi, who was abandoned at a hospital and rescued by Watoto as a premature baby and spent her first weeks in critical care. "I know that I am a wonder because I am chosen by God as His child."
"What an extraordinary experience it is to see the Watoto Children's Choir," said Brian Houston, Senior Pastor of Hillsong Church. "It lights up the place to see these beautiful kids, and when you hear their stories and learn about where they have come from, you can't help but think of all God has done."
