I was honored to serve on the crew of The SpongeBob Musical working as a stagehand and on the flyrail. The amount of joy and love that was heaped upon all of us by these performers with disabilities cannot be overstated. I’ m not sure my heart has ever been so full after a show. And I know our students felt the same way. It reminded me of Luke 2:38,“ give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

And here we thought we were coming onboard to bless them, little did we know, we were the ones who were about to be blessed.
“ In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said,‘ It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35
Ain’ t that the truth. See ya next year, Backlight. Can’ t wait!
