Laugh For Life Minnesota!

New Life Family Services has been a pregnancy resource center for thousands of women in Minnesota since 1973. Among many amazing services they provide, ultrasounds are a big one. Statistically, most women who plan on aborting, keep their baby after seeing their little one in an ultrasound. Over 350 ultrasounds have been given each year since 2000 by NLFS and 94% of those women chose life for their child!

This amazing ministry relies on the support of generous donors. One way they keep going is through fund-raising events. It was a privilege to perform the UniShow for their 7th annual Laugh For Life Comedy Night fundraisers this year. Friday, January 29th, we presented at Autumn Ridge in Rochester MN for 800 people. Saturday, January 30th's event was at Grace Church in Eden Prairie MN for around 2,500.

The UniShow was the opening act and comedian Brad Stine the feature act. Both venues had beautiful, large facilities and stages which made for great productions. Dustin debuted his new Ninebot One electric unicycle to start out the shows and ended by juggling flaming torches on his 10 foot unicycle, with lots of excitement sandwiched in between. Then Brad had the crowd in stitches for the rest of the night, while still emphasizing the serious situations many women find themselves in who need the real help, hope and answers NLFS provides.

It was special to be part of both of these purposeful events and even get to perform at our home church, Grace, and have many friends come out to support and enjoy the evening.
