the show turned out amazingly well. while it was prolly over 90 degrees in the room we were in and we couldnt have very many fans on because we werent using microphones and they were drowning out the performers and sweat was dripping off every single one of us, we had an amazing time.
we actually had to do a second show because there were so many people there for the first one and they wouldnt all fit. we raised thousands of dollars for the breath of heaven orphange in zambia. also, everyone who came was given a stone and they put it into a frame so that everyone's stones combined made a giant mosaic that the team that is going in january will take and install in the playground they are building for the kids. it is going to be awesome!
we didnt get home until 1:30 saturday morning after tearing down the set and resetting the room how it was before we came. lots of people stayed around to help so what took two days to set up came down in about an hour and half.
the actual show went off without a hitch. there is one point in the show when the casting director yells cut and the music is supposed to stop and the dancers stop... during the first show the power went off right at that instant. jeremy was able to flip the breaker really quickly and some people didnt even realize that it wasnt part of the show. pretty cool. people were asking us to do it again, so we will see what happens...

I love it that all that money was raised for an orphanage in Zambia. I left part of my heart there the summer of 2002 so it always makes my heart happy when I hear of that beloved country. I am really excited about seeing you in a few weeks my friend.
The power went off at the solitary moment when it wouldn't have been noticed and wouldn't have affected the story line of the program? Sounds like a God thing! He must really care about those kids in Zambia. When He's in it, He always comes through when you need Him.
