It gets really hot, humid and rain-challenged in Arkansas during August, so the performance schedule goes from four a week to three and then two per week until September and October when we complete the season with three performance days per week. A number of volunteers who left for other obligations will be coming back to help close out the season and work on projects for the 2015 opening. We've all worked hard at the tasks we have been given and feel that the Passion Play is going to finish 2014 strong. With proper planning, coordination of effort between the employees and volunteers and some modifications to the script and a more focused marketing plan, promotions and advertising, the prospects for 2015 looks bright and optimistic.
A number of the volunteers were informally talking about our plans for November and beyond. While we didn't come to any firm decisions, we did agree that it would be nice to stay together, find some places we could "vacation" and also be able to help a ministry, church, outreach or other service project and use our talents and what we have learned here to help do God's work in other places. Karen and I have been apart for the past month and she is planning on heading back to Arkansas later this week, so we need time to review all that has happened since June 25th and make arrangements for some needed repairs to the motor home and then decide what's next. We are so fortunate to be able to live this way and while I miss some of my Colorado routine, I have really enjoyed and thrived in the past 4months on the road and 3 months here in Eureka Springs. I would not have imagined how blessed I feel for the experiences we have had. God had a plan we could not have envisioned and provision we can thank no one else but Him for. The cloud and the pillar of fire still rest on us here and where we go from here is for God to reveal and for us to obey. Thank You, Lord.
