Hello Folks,
     Well this past week was sure filled with a lot of activity.  Our congregation presented our Easter Drama once again.  We have been doing it every other year for the past 6 years and before that it was presented almost every year for a number of years.  This year it was decided to present it Thursday night through Sunday night and God really blessed in it.  There were people saved and other rededicated their lives.  One lady and her daughter met me at the door one night after the presentation and said that they had rededicated their lives to Christ.  One young man with five children made a first time commitment to Christ.  There were over 2900 people who attended along with the approximately 200 people who were part of the cast or the support members.  We will not know all the good that this has accomplished for the King and His Kingdom until we step into eternity.  I want to thank all those who participated in the Drama for giving so much of themselves.  Mickey Waddell, Anita Miller and Dale Gruver gave untold hours in their leadership roles.  People like Bill Clark and those who ran the sound, Jerry Hartsell, Bobbie Darnell and Scott Foshie who took care of seating and security were phenomenal in their dedication.  All of those men who worked in the ceilings to allow Jesus and the angels to "fly" gave so much.  The list could go on and on and I would undoubtedly miss some so I just say to all of them "thank you" for lifting the message of Jesus through drama so this community could be reminded of the wonders of the Savior.
     The drama we presented lasted for 4 nights but the reality is that the message it represented was given to us from the foundation of the world.  I wonder if we would be faithful not just for 4 nights but in every day that our Lord would give us to share that message with others.  We are allowed this time for the purpose of lifting up the King of Kings.  May we do exactly that.

Have a great day,
