This video, shot yesterday in Swaziland by Tom Davis and narrated by Pastor Walter, is a sobering look at the realities of life in the most dangerous country in the world, a land where if you live past 30, you are the exception. Tom and his videographer, Simon Scionka, take us up close and personal in this harrowing account.

We who are watching this in America need to sit up and ask ourselves the question, "What can I do to bring hope to a situation like this?" You can make a difference. I know Pastor Walter - he needs your help in reaching out to the girls in this video. His dream is to start a school that will give them a free education. I believe it is a dream worth pursuing.
