The "last days" with the cast.

 
They just want to stay connected at the hip!
Brother Correia and Brother Hedworth of the Light Crew.
 
 
Brother Hedworth and Brother Halterman lead the cast in singing hymns
before the 11:00pm devotional after the show.
There is SOOOOO much talent in this year's crew.
 
This is a tradition that the Work Crew started 3 years ago in an attempt to bring the Spirit into the study shelter after each performance as we are awaiting the start of the evening devotional.
It was and is a very special thing to witness. The cast comes in after the show and there is a lot of talking and noise and then the YM begin singing and one by one the cast stops what they are doing and joins in until all 750 people are singing . It's like a slow moving, giant wave that sweeps across the room. The first time it happened it was the most tender moment I've ever experienced. Now it is a tradition that each Work Crew carries on and is symbolic of the mighty wave that is forming among these soon to be missionaries of the Lord.
What a wonderful testimony to the goodness of these young men.
 
 
The parting shot of the Work Crew with the Sister Missionaries who are serving
 at the Historical sites. The sisters trained the cast and crew on how to be effective missionaries as they greeted the audience each night.
