The Almost Famous People Players

Last night I attended "The Almost Famous People Players"' annual production, "We Will Rock You." Such fun; and so moving. They performed to a packed house and the audience clapped and stamped through the show with the performers. Charles made a great Elvis; Nelly was an enthusiastic cheerleader; hoppin' Scott brought cheers from the fans; and Adam, well Adam has ALL the moves! But the most memorable number of the evening was "Dancing Queen"; Jayme danced right into our hearts when she glided her wheelchair onto the floor, did a few pirouettes with the grace of an accomplished dancer, and simply shone as the princess that she is. In the prophecy of Jeremiah (31:13) God promises that when he restores his people, "then maidens will dance and be glad, young men as well as old. I will turn their mourning into gladness; I will give them comfort and joy instead of sorrow." Last night we saw a maiden dance -- it was a little peek beyond the veil into what awaits us when Jesus returns in all his glory. A huge "thank-you" to Julie Kuik for a great evening!
