Skit by MK's

skit /skit/
Noun:
A short comedy sketch or piece of humorous writing, esp. a parody - its a a brief burlesque or comic sketch included in a dramatic performance!
The MK's have for the passed 4 weeks at isolated times presented a Gospel skit. Its quite popular in the American culture within church groups, organizations and even christian camps. This musical, no script skit was comprised of 6 characters. A guy and a girl dressed in white representing God and us people respectively. The other 4 dress in black portrayed all the things of the world that disguise themselves as sin to disrupt the relationship we have with God namely: alcoholism, love for money, theif and vainity. These are some things that tempt our culture in moving away from God.
Initially the 2 characters depict the initial relationship God wants with his creation: filled with peace, love, security, adoration, affirmation and assurance. Later sins in its intervals rips away the girl and she is found facing identification issues, suicidal thoughts, not measuring up to society, etc. She spends some time struggling with these issues UNTIL she catches a glimpse of God. She struggles to get to him but she is snatched away at each instance until she falls as her strength fails her. Then God huddles over her and his power overwhelms that of the enemy and every black character falls down. He soothes her and cleans her up, welcoming her back home!

These skits have been performed more than 5 times namely at Mandlenkosi High School during assembly, during beach evangelism (performed twice), before the entire church of Ps. Tsotetsi in Ntuzuma, in Apostalic Faith Mission Church in Ntuzuma to name a few! At every occasion the message is vividly relayed with a passion and emotion in it!
I believe the Holy Spirit used them to be instrumental in delivering his saving grace message in a very culturally relevant manner.
We heading to debriefing tomorrow at Bonamanzi Private Park and we will be joined by the other MK's who spent their time in Port Shepstone working there with Jason Price! I can't wait to hear of all the stories and testimonies of what God has been doing during their weeks of ministering to that community!
I haven't really compiled my newsletter so that should be done this weekend.
