Invisible Children Maui Tour 2011 Debrief

(From left to right: Hannah, Nancey, Kyle, and Katie) 
Two weeks ago I was privileged to host a group of amazing people from the organization Invisible Children. 
  These four people made up the South Pacific Screening team for their organization.  Maui was the last leg of their tour.  With 100 screenings and presentations under their belt they were such an amazing power team that helped spread awareness about one of the longest running war in Africa.

  They spoke in schools, at our university, talked on the radio, and presented at local churches and venues.  I was very impressed by this teams commitment towards ending this war in Africa.  As we speak Invisible Children is helping to put local radio tours in central Africa that will be used to help small villages communicate to other villages when radical armies are near by.  Helping to warn these villagers and giving them a heads up to escape from near by danger.

 My favorite part of helping to host this team on Maui was working with this girl named Nancey from Uganda.  When she was only 7 her mother was shot and killed by the rebel army as she was sleeping right next to her, as this was going on she saw her father die right before her eyes as he gave his last breath...
  Nancey has to retell and relive this story daily as she goes on advocating the cause of Invisible Children and making real this atrocity to those who come and hear their story.
 I admired her bravery but most of all her trust and gratefulness to the Lord for all the things that has happened in her life.  Good and bad, her life was a powerful testimony to the healing and grace of Jesus Christ.

Skateboarding on Maui w/ Kelton Woodburn

 Last week I spent a few days with Kelton Woodburn.  He is doing a skateboarding documentary through out the islands of Hawaii.  He is a great photographer but better yet, a great nazi zombie partner.  We got up to level 14. (He reminded me on FB)

 We did interviews, hit up as much local skate spots as we could, and I think I skated more in those two days than I have in the past month all together. 

 This is Braden.  b/s disaster on the 8ft. ramp.

 Busted by the M.P.D. 

Kelton will be touring around Hawaii for the next week or so.  Right now he is on Oahu.  His documentary about Skateboarding in Hawaii should be out by mid February.  Im excited for it.
