Invisible Children organized a nationwide demonstration last week called The Rescue. The Rescue was a stand in solidarity for the abducted children of northern Uganda and was in more than 100 cities worldwide.
The months leading up to The Rescue were filled with anticipation. The posters and T-shirts were everywhere. The event lived up to the hype and thousands gathered in Santa Monica to show their support for Uganda relief efforts, including many Biolans. Four thousand people came to the Los Angeles event.
The Rescue consisted of a march to city hall and writing letters to senators. In addition, a new documentary for IC was filmed. Biola even led a time of improvised worship at the end of the night. The rally made news coverage and was featured in the Fox 11 news.
