The African Children’s Choir will treat Valley audiences to two upcoming performances of popular children’s music, traditional spiritual songs, and African cultural pieces.
The Choir is composed of African children, aged 10 to 12 years old, all who come from vulnerable backgrounds and have faced hardship and lack of education. However, they represent the potential of the African child to become leaders for a better future, according to a press release.
The first concert is at 7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 29 at Desert Hills Community Church, 34835 N. 7th St., in Phoenix.
The second show starts at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 3 at Apache Wells Community Church, 2115 N. Gayridge Road, in Mesa.
No tickets are required, and donations are welcome.
“The African Children’s Choir proves just how powerful music can be,” Tina Sipp, African Children’s Choir manager, stated. “These concerts provide hope and encouragement, not just to our audiences, but to the children whose lives are forever changed by their experiences with the Choir.”
The African Children’s Choir is part of a larger, international, Christian organization called Music for Life, which provides thousands of impoverished children throughout Africa with the education and leadership skills needed to rise above their conditions.
