Teen Talent

We spent Sunday evening at a talent showcase where Ryan’s little sister, Melissa, was participating with her church group in different drama categories for both the Middle School and High School students. Their show will eventually be taken on the road to Nashville, TN to compete against other teens from various church groups. She was singing, she was acting, she was dancing, and she was GOOD!  I was so impressed with her abilities and stage presence. Even though the showcase started at 6pm on a Sunday, during the playoffs, I was so impressed with the work and dedication of this  church community which is providing these teens with a platform to cultivate their craft. There is a lot of inspiration and hope to be drawn from watching teenagers who are really good at something AND who are working to build on that talent through the avenues that are available to them.
