Sunday Evening Program: Jesus Folk

This past sunday i attended a program called Jesus Folk. It was a musical production put on by the Hartford Citadel Corps form Hartford CT. the program was made up of "fringed kids" who without this program probally would be on the streets with nothing better to do than get in trouble. It is an amazing way to get kids and youth involved and let them actually be a prt of somthing and not just feel like it. the prgram shocased some of Jesus most important ways of reaching out to the people in his day. It had catchy fun songs and amazing lessons we can use in our everyday life. As i watched the body language and the faces of the participants i could see they were loving it. The end of the program was Jesus crucifixion and resurrection. It really showed me how you can take kids and teach them Jesus in a whole different way.

A program like this would moste deffinatley be possible in whatever corp i may be placed. Even if there were few youth and children you could still put together a presentation with dance, timbrils, band, singing or even a short play. Its amazing how God can take the most simple things and work miricles through them. You never know how much you impact a child or youth's life when you give them a role to play in a special presentation. They know thay they are loved, trusted, and cared for when you trust them with the responsibility of learning a part, memorizing lines, learning a dance or singing a solo. I thank God so much for putting the simple things in my life for me to be thankful for. He has provided me with so many things i could never dream of having. I cant wait to see what he is going to do with my life. All i know is that i am going to be a vessel for him and my life is going to be amazing because he is in control of it.
