Judgement House –
Abducted – LFBC 2015
Thank You VOLUNTEERS
In 1999,
Locust Fork Baptist Church began their Judgement House ministry. So your first question may be, What is Judgement House?
From
Judgementhouse.org: Judgement House is a
walk-through drama that presents the truth of people's choices versus the
consequences of those decisions both in this life and the next. No other tool is more effective at presenting the gospel and
giving individuals the opportunity to choose a personal and saving relationship
with Jesus Christ.
Over the
years I have had the opportunity to be an actor in Judgement House. I have played an extra, a dead person, a nurse,
a demon and an angel. This year I was
asked to head up the Prayer Team. At first,
I was super excited about not having to dress up. Secondly, I was happy to be able to be a part
of something so amazing. Heading up the
Prayer Team also led to helping with the Leadership Team. It gave me a front row seat to all things
Judgement House.
I was on
staff at Locust Fork Baptist Church for 4 years. Working at a church and serving is hard
work. There are a lot of long hours put
into most everything that is done. I
always was so grateful to those that volunteered with anything we did, because I
believe without them a church could not and would not run properly.
Until I was
married, working a full time job and volunteering at a church, I never truly
understood the sacrifices that people made.
My appreciation and understanding grew immensely.
This year we
had well over 330 volunteers that took part in our Judgement House This was six
nights of live performances. Prior to
the live performances there were months of planning and preparation and weeks
of rehearsals. From beginning to end, we
were blessed to have so many people commit their time to Judgement House, from
children to senior adults, from the Director to each volunteer. Without them Judgement
House would have NOT been possible.
To those
that helped with our Judgement House:
I am so
grateful for you. I am thankful for all
your hard work. Thank you for taking
time away from your family to direct scenes, register people, hang tarps, build
walls, guide groups, watch the parking lot, drive buses, act, sell shirts, make
and bring food, pray, counsel people, decorate, memorize lines, knock on doors,
and everything in between. Without each
one of you, Judgement House would not be possible.
1963 walked
through Judgement House because you volunteered.
92 people
were prayed with because you volunteered.
256
recommitted their lives to the Lord because you volunteered.
200 people
now will spend eternity with the Lord, because you volunteered.
You were a vital
part in making our 2015 Judgement House a success.
Thank you
for allowing the Lord to use you!!
