Team Beta returned to Conestoga View Retirement Home in Lancaster this past Sunday, April 9th. It was a beautiful, sunny day, and each resident received a palm leaf for Palm Sunday and a songbook as they came into the auditorium. They enjoyed chatting with our team before we presented. One woman was impressed with our matching t-shirts, and asked if we sell them. When told that, no, we don’t just sell shirts, she remarked, “Well, you should! You would make a lot of money!” 🙂
Jewel Sensenig, one of the DRAMA parents, began the presentation by leading several hymns, which the residents knew better than we did! Afterwards, the team presented five songs, receiving an applause after each one. Olivia and Isaiah Stoner and Emily Weaver took turns speaking, explaining the songs and encouraging the audience to remember that Jesus is always with us, and to walk in His light.
After wrapping up, we had the opportunity to hang out at the Sensenig’s home, talking about how the outreach went and praying to thank God for another opportunity to share the gospel!
