Unicorns and Unicycles

March 15th was a double header UniShow.  We started the day at Rocinante Alternative High School in Farmington.  We had a great time with 150 students who seemed to thoroughly enjoy the presentation and absorb the message of perseverance through life's challenges.





After the UniShow, honor students were awarded certificates for their achievements.  One student, previously a C student, had made a deal with the principal:  If she got straight A's this term, he would wear a unicorn costume for a day.  She was awarded a certificate for straight A's and Mr. Deswood held up his part of the deal and came out after the assembly in full unicorn style.  He even had a meeting later that afternoon with the superintendent.


Wednesday evening, we headed to First Baptist Church in Bloomfield for a community outreach.  Dustin presented the powerful Gospel message to an attentive audience. Students from Farmington High School brought their parents because they had enjoyed Monday's assembly so much. Other kids told us we had a great impact on their Christmas wish list. We pray the impact goes beyond unicycles and continues to point people to the Reason for the Hope that we have.
