Opening Night
Tonight, for the first time in history, in Chorley England, just outside of Preston, the British Pageant was performed with a cast of 200+, a choir of 150+ to an audience of 1000+. It was a packed house. Our hearts were also packed... with love and joy at the opportunity of being able to share the message of the pivotal role the Brits have played in the bringing forth of God's words to the nation. The Bible in English. The immigration to the Americas. The sacrifice, some even with the cost of their lives, to press the work forward. What an honor it was to participate in commemorating their contribution to the kingdom of God. In the final scene the entire cast sings Called to Serve, and the missionaries serving in the Preston MTC (which is right on the temple grounds) all enter the stage and join in. Then we launch into Redeemer of Israel and I get to hit the high note. It. was. awesome. I'm so grateful that my family is here to share this. Our time abroad has honestly been both the best of times and the worst of times. This pageant is definitely one of the best of times.

What an amazing experience!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great description, how great that your family got to do this. We came from England/Scotland and immigrated with the church, and you get to return to the mother land and be in this play, how cool is that!!
