Matthews Family Herald

Micah is depicted here holding one of his "creations." He loves designing stuff with these.

Micah is, as we speak, trying out for the lead role in a play sponsored by the military public schools and based off of the book "Robinson Crusoe." Normally, we don't do much with the public school system but since this book is primarily from a Godly perspective and with a Godly intent, we decided to take this opportunity for Micah to develop his talent and interact with others. (And to encourage the school system to be more open to Godly things.) Hopefully, the school won't pollute the story by editing out it's most important elements.

Anyhow, Micah was rehearsing and trying to get ready but the hour was getting pretty late. Instead of staying up way past the time he should be sleeping, he felt like God told him not to worry and to go on to bed. Sure enough, a friend who is also going called this morning to tell us that Micah would not need to have something memorized after all but that the judges would hand him something and want him to do it, impromptu. So, Micah is ready both inside and out.

Regardless of what part he gets, we will be proud of him and ask for your prayers and encouragement for him. Should he get a part in the play, they will rehearse twice a day and then perform this Saturday.
