Belated post - Skit with Hopewell youth

I’m working with Leonard, one of our mother tongue translators, who also is the pastor of a Baptist congregation in the Standing Pine Community. A few months ago, Leonard called me attention to a skit on YouTube. Working together, we adapted the skit for use at his church. We began practice earlier this spring. Leonard wants to use the skit as part of the 100 year anniversary of the New Choctaw Baptist Association. The skit is meant to reinforce the sermon Leonard is going to preach about the need for salvation at different congregations August 21 – 26.

Working with the students is part of my work as an Arts Consultant – incorporating Arts into different areas of ministry. I am happy that there are opportunities for me to use my training.
