This event should be very interesting and unique. It's a fundraiser so there will be a $5 donation asked for at the door. Here's a description from the Wealthy Theatre website... "This event is a fundraiser for Sudanese Grace Church and will consist of a dance performance by Sudanese Lost Boys. They will perform traditional Sudanese dances which they learned in their home country and ones which they often danced while in refugee camps after fleeing their homes.
Two congregations housed in the same building, Grace Episcopal Church and Sudanese Grace Church, are working to reach out to students in southern Sudan. In addition to creating awareness of the dire situation in southern Sudan, Grace Church members are raising funds to purchase educational materials for thousands of students in southern Sudan. Basic school items such as tents to provide shelter for lack of buildings, textbooks, ESL materials and other school supplies are desperately needed by the schools.
Grace Church is also partnering with World Relief in southern Sudan to provide funding for teaching training in several regions of southern Sudan. This is in cooperation with the Episcopal Church of Sudan. All proceeds from this event will go towards this mission."
