March

March was a challenging month for me. I had a physical thing to deal with that worked out ok, but there was a little nervousness in the beginning.



Then it was time to prepare for Easter. Tammy and I were talking early in the month and I shared with her the story of how when I was a kid in So-Cal that we went to Forest Home and saw a presentation of "The Last Supper". It was a copy of the DiVinci painting but done in a dramatic way. There was a large curtain that opened and a dramatic reading while spotlights highlighted certain parts of the painting as part of the story. I think I was only in the 5th grade at the time so obviously it had an impact on me to remember it all these years. We decided to use that concept for Easter at SBC. I was to come up with some paintings and we would get a script done and have someone read it. Tammy would normally have spearheaded that effort except Tim's father passed away and they needed to go to North Dakota for the funeral. I finalized a script, asked Jim Taggart and Pete Meygasi to help out. We went to Pete's and recorded the script. I then finalized the paintings. Each painting was 8' tall and 4 ' wide and they were placed in order on the top ledge of either side of the platform. As the reading was played each painting was highlighted then dimmed at the appropriate time. I actually sat out of one of the Easter services to see if it turned out the way I hoped-Praise God, it did.
