We Could Use Some Help With The Set

Anyone with a willing pair of hands and some time on Wednesday evening, April 14?

Jeff Wilbur and I (Heidi Hayes) will be working on the set in the gym. We could use a few extra hands.

We'll probably start around 6:30 and end by 9:00.

We'd love to see you there.

Thanks!

Rehearsal for Wednesday, April 14

4:15 - 5:15 - Animal Groups Runthrough
Carol Choir, Alleluia Choir and Youth Chorale
We will run, in order, all of the scenes that have the Animal Groups onstage. This will be the first time the Animals will experience how long they are in the ark. It might feel like 40 days, but it won't be!

Leads are welcome to join us, but are not required to be there.

We'll be in the Gym.

Don't be late!
