This Sounds Like a Such a Hope Thing to do This Summer :)
Orlando is the number one tourist destination with almost 50 million visitors a year. That’s an awesome mission field - the whole world is coming to our doorstep. This will be an intense and culturally diverse ministry experience. The students will form our Resort Ministries Creative Arts Team. We are looking for talented students in the areas of music, puppets and dance. The students must have performance experience in solo and/or ensemble. Other performance skills such as puppets and drama are highly beneficial. An audition video/DVD is required. The students will be performing several times a week in tourist areas. The goal of the performance is to gather a crowd in order to share the gospel afterwards using one-on-one evangelism. We would love to have students of different ethnic backgrounds to serve in this great international destination. The students will conduct Kid’s Clubs at hotel pools three times a week. Kid’s Clubs are like a Backyard Bible Club/Daycamp with Bible stories, games in the pool and crafts. You may also have the opportunity to be part of a Traveling Team that will travel to different churches in partnership with GOBA to provide a worship service and to challenge the churches. The performances will be composed of music, drama skits, interpretive movements, testimonies, etc. A time of worship will be provided each week just for all the summer missionaries. This will be a time for you to be recharged and share how God is using you. Our supervisory team will be mentors for you throughout the summer. You will watch God work through you and your fellow teammates. You will be stretched out of your comfort zone. You will learn to live out and share your faith.
Ten weeks in Orlando Florida…on a creative arts team…doing drama…ministering to strangers & children. Last year around this time if I heard about being away from home for two & a half months, I would have not have given this trip a second glance. But the past two semesters at college, I’ve been ok with being away from home every couple of weeks. Jesus, if this was Your will for me this summer, I think I would be ok with it.:)
