For the Sake of the Call

Yes. It is true. I actually put on ladies tights and make-up for the sake of missions. As some of you may or may not know, Whole In One has been working on a short term missions video training series being developed by John Plake of Frontline Ministries. John is an Assemblies of God appointed missionary. John asked us to write and produce comical sketches for the training series. Interjecting humor, as well as, reinforcing truths about cultural sensitivity helps people going on missions trips avoid embarrassing mishaps.

The video training series introduces 'The Ugly American" and all of his antics! Needless to say, very little acting on my part had to be done. I fit the profile perfectly. Loud and obnoxious is all part of a regular routine!! Okay, perhaps, the ugly American is a little more over the top, but it really wasn't much of a stretch for me. What was a stretch was women's 'medium-tall' tights!! They were the biggest pair of red tights I could find! I bought two pairs and wore them for almost 3 hours.

Against my better judgement, I will post a picture of "The Ugly American". It is not my most flattering look! With only an hour and a half break for lunch, we were in the studio from 9 - 5. It was an exhausting day, but I'm really excited to see how it all comes together.

Here it is....................................
