Kony 2012

Who is Kony, you ask?  
Joseph Kony (born c. 1961) is a Ugandan guerrilla group leader, head of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a group engaged in a violent campaign to establish theocratic government throughout Uganda. The LRA say that spirits have been sent to communicate this mission directly to Kony.  Directed by Kony, the LRA has earned a reputation for its actions against the people of several countries, including northern Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, and Sudan.  It has abducted and forced an estimated 66,000 children to fight for them, and has forced the internal displacement of over 2,000,000 people since its rebellion began in 1986. In 2005 Kony was indicted for war crimes by the International Criminal Court in the Hague, Netherlands, but has evaded capture. 
Also, We need to pray for those under Kony's power so, please spread the word and feel free to watch this video I am going to post!
