Church of the Good Shepherd Fundraiser

The Talent Show Fund Raiser

By Joseph

Recently (at least it used to be) a talent show happened at the Church of the Good Shepherd in Kitchener. Its purpose was to raise money for the youth group. There were people from all ages that signed up to show a talent they had or a skit. They sang songs, read poems, played music, did British skits, and other ridiculous things.

The youth helped out with the talent show by making espresso drinks, setting up tables, making food, and decorating. The people from the youth group that helped a lot with preparation with this were Erin, Cameron, Robbie, Katie, Blade, and Dorothy. Alison Longstaff’s daughters; Jeanie and Eden made the espresso drinks.

It was very fun and full of refreshments. My favorite part was the skits based on a show called The Vicar of Dibley. This show is a British comedy show. It’s about a vicar and the people of the church of Dibley (which she counts as being in the special needs category). The actors of those skits did very well in acting out the characters in the show making it very funny. I liked the music that was played by Josh on the keyboard and other songs played by Alison on a guitar. It was something worth watching.

All the youth did well with helping for the talent show and being a part of it. It was well done because in the end they managed to raise $323.27 for the youth of the church. It was a good experience.
