Dear Ladies this is a long letter, but please read…
Thank you for being a blessing to the families of Word of Life Christian Center. Your labor of love is not in vain. We will reach many souls for the Kingdom of God. The Three Kings Hula presentation is scheduled for Christmas day, December 25th for all morning services (7am, 9am, 11am) in Honolulu. We are also on stand by to minister before the Scrooge Production between 6:30pm and 7:00pm on December 21-25 performing Christmas songs. Those who will be selected for this segment will be contacted via text. Please respond as soon as possible.
We already started our rehearsals, however, below is the current schedule that will help you keep current. Sanctuary parking is available at the Queen & South Streets parking lot on Saturdays and Sundays, as well as the Halekawila Garage parking lot on Sundays. Please bring drinks and snacks to help you stay refreshed during rehearsals and the production. Refrain from bringing expensive jewelry, valuables or large amounts of money during this time. Our next rehearsal is December 17th at the sanctuary, 8-10am. Here are a few notes expressed at our previous rehearsals to keep in mind:
•
Final cast selection will be based your ability to adapt to the WOL halau style of dance, knowing your choreography, facial expression (which includes the ability to sing with the music), and your ability to incorporate the body movements as directed by Pastor Pattie.
•
Carry yourself with confidence at all times (pull and keep yourself up) – remember we are representing excellence in our posture and presence.
•
Entering, exiting and placement on stage is everything. Remember to know your timing and to mark your spot once you have been staged.
•
Follow your group leader – listen to her direction
•
Guard your heart and be flexible to change and adapt as directed. The souls that we are winning for Christ is the purpose for this and all productions.
•
Let’s keep the unity. You are always welcome to text your comments or questions to Kathleen.
We love you,
