Look Up!

This weekend a group of our youngsters will be performing a musical during services. The script follows three characters on a journey full of laughter, surprises, and dangers as they search for the lost cookie jar and rescue a damsel in distress in order to save the day at the Giant Cookie Festival.

"Turtle", a shy little girl, "Little Man" a conquering young hero, and their fearful friend "Princess" encounter situations in their adventure that bring up anxiety, confusion, and loneliness. But in all of these situations, they are reminded to "look to the Lord." As they pray for help, the Lord delivers them and shows them a way through their current troubles. And after each difficult situation is overcome the choir sings praise to the Lord for His grace and His deliverance.

My hope is that through this simple, youthful production we'll be reminded that the Lord wants us to call out to Him in our times of trouble. There's something about the purity and innocence of children that can open our grown-up hearts to the truths of the Kingdom.

One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts. Psalm 145:4

This isn't just about older teaching younger. There are times when it goes the other direction, too! It's going to be a fantastic weekend! Come and enjoy it with us.
