Last Saturday was our final Deaf Cafe, Flint program for our 4th season. We ended it with a bang! Two special things happened. At the very top we celebrate that there is a new Christian in God's kingdom! A young lady accepted Christ as her personal Savior. YEAH! THAT is why we serve. THAT is what makes it all worth it. We want to give Jesus a smile and cause the angels to jump for joy!
Locks of Love
Second thing that happened was one of our team members, Kirstan... donated her long hair to "Locks of Love". Another team member cut Kirstan's pony tail off as part of the program! She then proceeded to style it further. For someone who doesn't cut hair as a professional, Vonnie did a wonderful job! You can check out Kirstan's blog for her story about that experience. Check out the video at the very bottom! It will touch your heart.
What a year it has been!
It was a year of ups and downs. It was a year of tears and joy. It was a year of constantly being busy and thinking of new ideas, doing research, making costumes, making props, going through first, second, third and fourth drafts of drama scripts, learning new songs, sending out emails, downloading, uploading, meetings, practices and just being creative for the Lord! wow... now we break for the summer. We need this time to catch our breath!
We will be fixing up our travel travel this summer. This holds all our props, tables, lights, etc we need for the programs we do. That will be fun to have a "work day". Some of us will paint the trailer. Some will be making a wood folding frame to be a temporary wall during the program. Some will iron the just washed costumes. There will be plenty of work for everyone involved.
We also hope to go camping as a team this summer. That is still being worked out at the moment. This is a great group of people and we enjoy being around each other. We all love the Lord and we all give of our time, our energy, our gas!!, etc to serve in this ministry.
Find a way in your community to serve others too!
