Lopez Lomong will be heading to Africa this week and a may focus of his is heading to his village in Sudan to build a church. This is the church that Lopez was taken from when he was a boy, the church where the village gathers for services and town meetings.....and the church that is currently on a tree. Thats right, the "church" the village currently has is simply a tree the villagers gather under. Lopez is heading up this operation with Sudan Sunrise, an organization out of Kansas.
If you'd like to help the cause and donate to the Village's church you can go to http://sudansunrise.org/programslopezlomong.htm.
