AWARD CEREMONY - Sat, 22 Nov 2008

Our theme this year was

"LIFE in the KINGDOM "
"Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven" (Matt 6:10)
We wanted to portray something of this scripture to our parents and guests, that we are to live a victorious life in the NOW REALITY ... Not waiting for one day ... some day ... but that God desires His Kingdom to come into our lives TODAY as a result of our choices and accurate life styles.

Although the quality of this photo is not good at all, it can at least give an idea on how the stage looked like.

"A Glimpse of Heaven"
Victor Maina was playing the "main angel" and here he is receiving a street kid, Kamau, into heaven.

While the street kid is getting "royal treatment" (a hair cut, a manicure, etc.), another man enters heaven, Omondi. He is very shocked that he "is dead" and even more shocked when he recognizes Kamau who is being treated like a king. The moral of the story is that Omondi was allowed to see a glimpse of heaven, as his ministry and his lifestyle was not pleasing unto God anymore. He had to see how all people are valued in the Kingdom and was allowed back to earth so that he could truly manifest God's love to a broken world.

"Turn the other Cheek"

This play was about 2 ladies meeting at lunch time, when the one girl is very upset because of the fact that her boss is stealing her proposals (rejecting it when she gives it to her, but then using it later with her own name signed under it). Both are christians, but the one who has been wronged is totally bitter and is contemplating on how to take revenge on her boss ... until 3 children who are playing in the park shows her how true christianity looks like.

We want to thank Bob Snook for making all his plays - more than a 1000 of them - available for free download. May God richly bless you. http://www.thewestcoast.net/bobsnook/
