After the neat experience of presenting our cantata at Wal-Mart I wondered how preforming at our own church would be. Let me say that it was a lovely presentation. We had over 100 total with visitors, choir, orchestra and actors. It was our largest group ever!
As I write this update it looks like it is going to rain buckets. Just after Sunday school this morning we went out as a church and handed out invitations for the afternoon presentation. We’d done this several times during the week but each time had ended with drenching rain. For our cantata, however, the weather was lovely, sunny and not too hot.
There were various visitors that told me they had come because of an invitation that was handed to them either this morning or earlier in the week. Seeds planted do bring fruit. I talked to one of the visitors who was overwhelmed with how well the kids did. She really was touched with the message of Christmas.
Several of your have shared with me how you prayed for our Cantata. It is friends like Kate, Susan, John, Jake, Justin, Tom, Eddy and Sharon that share ministry with us. I know too that the Harvest class at FBC Lake Orion prayed this morning. If you prayed with us drop me a note. I love to hear from you.
After the presentation the kids all got presents from people who wanted to help them to have a merrier Christmas than they might ordinarily have. The Baker, Francisco from Anjos bakery, where we presented last week to no one, sent presents for all of the kids who were in the audience! So, when you are in the area don’t forget to buy your bread from Anjos bakery!
