Whats this I hear about having fun & funding the whole deal with a Dinner Theater every year?
If you want to pay for the entire program in two fell swoops, get your most creative drama folks together with the best cooks in the church and explore creating a dinner theater twice a year (January & May) where children sell tickets, parents grill steaks, and everyone shows off the 15 themes, 15 songs, 15 cartoon Readers Theaters, and 15 sets of original artwork as the show. At the end of each dinner, auction off their art and the 15 large Bible murals they have created over the semester. Do this the right and aside from being a huge outreach opportunity to the neighborhood, Bible Song can fund the purchase of Home Journals, youth Bibles, and other designated mission projects twice each year.
