Ministerio de Drama

When I set off for college back in '95 (yikes!) I was not a drama guy.  Perhaps a bit dramatic (melodramatic)  at times but not the church & school play guy.  I never even took a drama class in school.  Remembering lines, keeping a straight face, stage fright....any number of factors kept me safely in the audience.

Well, God's providence being providential as it is, I found myself joining DRIME (www.drime.com) in college and over the past 14 years slowly releasing the choreographed-drama-set-to-music-not-pantomime person in me.  My involvement with DRIME sparked the missions bug (blossomed into a virus) in me and gave me the opportunity to travel the world, mature in leadership capacity, and grow in faith and vision for evangelism and discipleship.  

Through drama I have seen so many people burst out of shells that kept the artist in them tucked away or the evangelistic heart in more secure quarters.  I have seen crowds of young and old lend their attention to  see a portrayal of the  love and freedom that is found in Christ.

In my time here in the DR, I have been blessed and encouraged to work alongside a talented crew of young people at El Camino Church who want to share the gospel through drama and dance.  They have had opportunities to share in churches, open air venues, prisons, camps, and schools--each time enacting the freedom that is in Christ and leaving their audience with a visual image of the gospel.
