We are getting ready for our Burning Embers Summer Tour! The last month has been filled with practices, practices and more practices! Dan has headed up practices by researching, scripting and directing 3 of the 4 major dramas for our performance. Dan has done an amazing job!
He has also had some great help. His mom, Patty, has helped edit the scripts and our team has helped come up with great ideas for acting and making it more visual for our audience to enjoy! God has truly gifted our team with many natural actors! Renca has been in countless performances at Gallaudet and other universities and wrote and directed one of our 4 major skits, theature was Brandon's major when he attended college, Kari researched some good dramas to use and is a natural actor, as well as Gabriel and Jonathan! Liza and Gabriel have worked on costume design. We have all pitched in!
Jonathan and Brandon have specially helped me with teaching me how to die properly. To be honest, I have had to be taught a few times. LOL I naturally do not know how to die. No worries, the boys have seen many war movies, and have many options in ways of how to die.
Liza giving Gabriel the cue of when to beat the drum for epic battle scene!
Where Jesus gets all the victory and where I die. Practicing has been fun and we are excited to be able to share the skits with the Deaf community around America! And know that Jesus will touch and draw hearts to himself through them.
There is less than a month, until we are on the road! God has already answered so many prayers and we know He is faithful so will provide everything we need! Please join our team in praying for some of the things we still need before we hit the road June 1st!
