And today we have a very special treat from Judi and the Seventh Congregational Dancers: an interpretation-in-movement of our scripture lesson, taken from 1 Kings 14.
Starring Raymond as Rehoboam (with Raymond, Jr., as Abijam his son) —
Darren as Shishak, King of Egypt —
Judi as Na’amah the Ammonitess (with Meagan as the Servant Girl) —
Landon and Cody as Some Innocent Egyptian Children —
Barbara as All the Gold Stuff in the Temple —
Sharon, Summer, McKenzie, and Evelyn as The Battle —
and Emily and Dawn as The Spirits of Peace and Justice, which aren’t actually part of the story, but would have been, we’re sure, if they had only thought about it —
As always, we’re grateful to Judi and the Dancers for their hard work in bringing the message of scripture alive for us today.
Praisewear from Movement Connection.
