St. Pat's Talent Show Fundraiser

Dancing
Singing
Imagine...over 80 people from preschoolers through great-grandparents coming together on a Friday night to share. They shared laughter, juggling, singing, dancing, poetry reading, piano and flute solos, guitar playing, desserts, camaraderie and much, much more. More than one parish, and more than one denomination were represented at the Talent Show fundraiser at St. Pat's in Dublin, OH.

Check out the YouTube videos: One of Becci and Mike dancing and the other of the closing number with Cricket and Wes. "... Anything You Can Reach I Can Reach Higher" Yours truly shot the video hence the home video quality.

St. Pat's Parish Hall: Liberia and Honduras Fundraiser Talent Show
By the end I was laughing as was most of the audience. What you cannot see is that my eyes were full of tears because I could not believe how wonderful and how generous everyone was. The donations collected are going both to a medical mission trip to Honduras and to the trip to Liberia to continue the companion relationship explorations. This is what community means, when it is a community in action. I can't think of what more to say. "Thank you" just does not seem to be enough. Thank God gets closer. We are so blessed.
