Oklahoma!: Jeri Chipman


They say, in theater, that when the lights go down and the curtain goes up "magic" happens. I can tell you it's true, and it certainly was the case in our church's summer production of Oklahoma! but the truly magical thing about our production wasn't just what happened during performance. 

All summer long, friends new and old came together for hundreds of hours of rehearsal and created a piece of art of which we were very proud. We were a microcosm of what the church should be - a multi-generational, diverse group committed to and joined by a common purpose. Each role was different and every person was vital. I hope our performance served as a gift to our church family and our community. Those of us who participated received and even greater gift - a manifestation of God's love in community and fellowship. 

Thank you to everyone who supported our musical (and all the arts programs in our church) by attending, offering financial support and lifting us in prayer. You help create the "magic" here at AHUMC all year long.
