For anyone who is not aware, Swaziland is a small country in Southern Africa with a population of around 1 million people. Over the last few decades, an HIV epidemic and poverty has resulted in hundreds of thousands of orphans and vulnerable children. Challenge Ministries Swaziland (CMS) develop communities that care for these effected children, providing homes, schooling, church and healthcare in a safe and protected environment. Bulembu, in the beautiful mountains of Northern Swaziland, was a deserted and derelict mining town that used to house 10,000 miners and their families. Since 2006, Bulembu is slowly being restored one home at a time and now houses a community of around 1200 people including around 350 children.
 
Here is a taster video.   It is a huge deal for them to make this trip and they are very excited - do support them!

If you can't wait to hear more or cannot make it to a concert you can listen to their specially recorded cd on Spotify, Amazon Music and you can download on ITunes in the next few weeks.   Search "The Bulembu Choir" .  The Album is called HOPE.
 
I would be grateful if you could spread the word to your social network.  I can provide specific event posters or flyers if that would help.  We hope to see you there.
