It was a very special morning, beginning at 10:00 sharp with an adult service, during which we performed the Everything play with usual gusto (one carpet burn and an elbow to the larynx were the extent of sustained injuries). The audience response was wonderful and everybody cheered as Jesus held the vices at bay!
Some of us then headed upstairs to participate in a lively repertoire of action songs for the children while the rest of our team was treated to a stirring sermon in the chapel.
At 1:00 we joined in on the youth group meeting Emerge and performed both the Four Horsemen and Everything skits, and received great reactions to both. Then Simon conducted an impromptu interview with our team on the subject of spreading the message of God's love your average person on the streets. The wonderful young people also had a number of questions for us and were very interested in our lifestyle! We hope to bale to work more with them to bring Jesus to England!
Yesterday we hit Reading YOC with the Everything skit and a simple, spontaneous repertoire of songs (even a duet with Heather and DeeJay, lol). The detainees expressed that the play was "moving and relatable" and were happy to talk about it's relevance afterwards as we split into cell discussion groups. Enjoy the pics and God bless!
(PS: For security reasons we're not allowed to take pics inside of Reading, so the group shot outside of the prison is as much!)
