Drama
Drama
is such a great ministry! Are you in an acting troupe, drama
club, or involved in the theater at your school or in your
community? There are lots of cool things that you could do
to use your talents in drama for God and to help the kids
being reached by the Love Maputo Project.
Maybe you
could get some folks together, the club you’re in, etc… and
see about dedicating a show that you’re already doing to the
kids of Love Maputo.
Before the curtains open you could talk about the
need in Mozambique and what the Love Maputo Project is doing
to help get kids out of prostitution, drug couriering and
onto a new life in Jesus Christ. We could get you pamphlets
to pass out with the show bills. The ticket sales from that
night’s show could be donated to meet the needs of the kids
being reached by the Love Maputo Project and we could
definitely give you feedback on how funds were used
specifically.
Or, perhaps you could take it a step
further and organize an acted out interpretation of what
these kids face on a daily basis – homelessness, hunger,
police brutality, coercion into prostitution and drug
couriering, hopelessness… and then the hope given by Jesus
Christ through the hands of the workers of the Love Maputo
Project. Again, ticket sales could be donated to meet needs
and it may inspire viewers to use their talents to help get
involved too.
You could try and get chapel credit for
the event to lure in a larger audience.
Something to think about anyways. Any
video clips, pictures, quotes you get we would may be able
to use in an activism story about you and your group on here
to get people inspired and fired up. You never know who
could be touched by a story of what you did to get involved
using their talents for God and these kids too.
