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.
