Share the Adventure! (The Lucas and Mary story so far)

Lucas and I were asked to share our story in our Sunday School class on 8-3-25. We set up a videocamera on a tripod because I wanted a record of how we shared our story-so-far in our 40s. If you want to know more about any part of what we shared, just ask! :-)


8-4-25
We're at our best
    when we're connected
                        teammates
                        on mission
                    laughing along the way
And that's what happened yesterday
"Sharing our story in class"
    became a stage
         where our triumphs and faults
            were on full display
We planned and plotted
We spent waaaay too many hours finding old photos
    and perfecting our presentation slides
We joked about possible things to say
We were connected and lovey
    leading up to it
    and afterwards
    making allowance for disagreements
    and still flowing together
We were real and raw
We laughed together and as a class
We wove "plinko" and "share the adventure" through the whole thing
    planting it at the beginning and clinching at the end
    like master communicators
We had so much fun,
    and the audience did, too
    and You were glorified
Ahh...at our best
    is a beautiful thing
