Skipping school for a birthday party.
Maundy Thursday started with a 75th Birthday Party, for MICKEY MOUSE. The kids were on the local news that night, though we didn't catch it (one of Ty's friends did and called to say "NOW I know why you left school early!!!" Tyler had refused to tell his friends where he was going. He just said, "I have an appointment!")
Thursday night we had lamb ke-bobs, roti prata (flat indian bread) and grape juice in wine glasses for dinner. Tyler read the Scriptures; Cameron got food all over his clothes; and I snuck away after their bedtime to see a 9:00 showing of The Passion...where I DIDN'T cry. I could'nt for amazement. I was just so overwhelmed and thrilled as I watched: "This is being shown in the Middle East??? Muslims are hearing this by the hundreds?" Who would have ever thought that the Gospel would be preached freely and profoundly in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait because of Mel Gibson's personal spiritual awakening? I am astounded at what God is doing through this film.
Good Friday, April 2004: Tyler's first stage performance, my first time adapting a script for Singapore and directing a show for our church Grace Assembly of God. TRAVELING LIGHT.
Friday we were at church from 12 to 10! One of Ty's friends, Thomas, joined him all day at church and Loonni and Cameron came to see both shows. Tyler did a great job! He was really cute as a Singapore road worker...changing the street signs for different scenes. Lots of wonderful feedback. Glad to have done it.
