The Marvelous Mystery Tour

Last summer at Christian Family Fellowship Ministry's Family Camp Wayne Clapp and Jon Nessle taught a series they called The Marvelous Mystery Tour. They are producing a DVD and syllabus of the class that will be released in a few months. Yesterday, April 4, 2009, Wayne visited Southern Michigan and gave forty-one of us a four hour preview of that class- part taught live, part on DVD.We met in a lovely room in a Warren, Michigan banquet hall at 9:00 a.m. and enjoyed visiting with each other for about one-half hour, then we got started with prayers and manifestations. Wayne was introduced, and began the live portion of the teaching. We continued at a comfortable pace including breaks and a deli buffet lunch. and a question and answer period, until about 3:30 p.m.The people attending were from Detroit, Westland, Saginaw, Ypsilanti, Midland, Chesterfield, Sterling Heights, Warren, and Center Line, Michigan, Tipp City, Ohio, and Windsor, Ontario, Canada- just across the river.We had lots of fun and fellowship, and learned more about what true worship is, and who we are in Christ. What more could a girl ask for?Love,Donna Jo

Saturday, March 14th some of us met for dinner at Randy & Cheri's home. They welcomed us and we ate big! Stir fry, Pot Stickers, Egg Rolls, Won ton Soup. . . are you detecting a theme? If you said Chinese you would be correct- right down to your sweet little fortune cookies!We broke bread, ahem egg rolls together, then we began a wonderfully fun game. Murder ala Chinese Take out. I've heard of parties like this where dinner attendees play a part in a Who-dun-it and you don't know until the end of the play who did it, but I had no idea what great fun it would be.The idea is for each character to dress their part if possible, then, following a booklet script and an audio recording, act out their parts. No one knows who the murder is until act two, and then only the murder themselves.We took a few tries to figure out how we were supposed to play it, and which parts to read out loud but even that caused peals of laughter. Our hopeless attempts at Chinese accents caused belly laughs the entire night, too.After the "play" we enjoyed Lemon Cake and everyone went home full, tired and very very blessed- looking forward to our next Dinner Theater.
