Incarnate in Italy

Incarnate 2016 is a Creative Arts school in Italy run by OM Arts. Though it's their 3rd one in 5 years, this is the first time we have had the privilege of joining them. We flew into Rome, took a 2 hour bus ride then a 30 minute shuttle to arrive in beautiful Isola del Gran Sasso, from 23 - 26 February.

We sat in on lectures and meetings and dined with the students and staff. During one morning session we shared with the performing artists about the ministry God has given us in the UniShow and how the creative arts can be used to share His love openly around the world. Then during the second Incarnate Open Studio night of the year, we presented an abbreviated version of the UniShow, including Dustin sharing the clear, simple Gospel message. Staff had invited people from the community and were surprised that many came, even some professing atheists. It was a fun night also seeing students perform dances, music and share art work.

It is our prayer that each of these students at Incarnate not only become whole and healthy artists, but also get inspired to share Jesus boldly and clearly through their art.
