So I came across you actually messaged me on Facebook about a cool thing that you're doing this Sunday at the Fox Theater downtown North Platte, and that is a prayer service for the people of Ukraine. But I think the backstory behind your post is kind of cool. You directed Fiddler Fiddler on the Roof at the playhouse. Right? Which of course is goes right along with the Russians and is about a Russian family. So tell us kind of how you came up with this idea based off of that? Well,
Darrell Drullinger 0:56
during Fiddler on the Roof. There were just so many lines, in so many things expressed that it really made me think about what was going on in the world at that time. And at that time, it was it wasn't Ukraine, it was Afghanistan, if I remember, right, but it was like all these people are having to leave their home. And, and a tough guy from Fiddler on the roof was actually set in Ukraine. And so, you know, it's like, Fiddler on the Roof has been my favorite musical since I was in sixth grade. So that's been kind of a, I don't know, it just really spoke to me. And then, you know, we went from that to the sound of music, which is the Austrian family being forced out of their home. And now the high schools doing Anastasia, which is the royal family in Russia, are executed and part of the Russian Revolution. And it's just like, North Platte is being kind of saturated with this right now. And I think it's kind of a special thing. And I just really felt the I don't want to say the call. But I guess that's what it was to put together this prayer service. And I don't know how many people are going to come there maybe three. There may be 300. I don't know. But I would I would like to see a good crowd do it. And if they can't come, I hope that in their homes. They're taking time to pray for these people.
Scott Carlson 2:23
Yeah. So you're you're holding this prayer service this Sunday at the Fox Theater, downtown North Platte. 7 pm you're gonna open the doors up at 330. So 630 Or excuse me? 630? I don't know, why is that 330. But anyway, 630 you're gonna open if you want to come at 330 and hang out downtown, I'm sure they'd let you. But anyway, yeah, 630. So people come in and socialize a little bit before it gets started. But then it's gonna be just about lifting up the people of Ukraine in prayer. And it's, you know, you always hear about the six degrees of separation, or it's a small world. You were telling me before we came on air, one of our basketball players at the college is Ukrainian. Actually, there are two of them. And one for sure, as grandparents right in the thick of it right.
Darrell Drullinger 3:05
And, you know, I can't imagine how helpless they feel, and worrying about their family. It's got to be nerve-racking for them. I understand there's a doctor at the hospital who's Ukrainian. And I've put out kind of a plea towards him. I haven't heard back, but I would like for him to be there. To give a little background of the area I'm not familiar with and just let us know, you know what this is like, I'm sure they're in communication, or he's in communication, possibly with family. And I've heard there are others in the community. But I haven't been able to track him down specifically. So I just keep saying spread the word, spread the word and have him call me and, you know, I'm trying to get pastors to join in the leadership of it. To read scripture or meditation and then a brief prayer and just do segments like that. And I guess it doesn't really even have to be pastors, it's lay leaders, anybody that feels LED. If they would give me a call, that would be great. Yes, I would. I'm trying to figure out timewise I don't want to, you know, to go on forever, but a half-hour, 45 minutes, maybe an hour. We'll just see how the Holy Spirit leads us.
Scott Carlson 4:24
Yeah, just take it as it comes. And worth noting nondenominational gathering and it doesn't matter what which faith you know, you belong to you're welcome to come. Right. Exactly. So it's happening again, this Sunday, Fox Theater 301 East Fifth Street in downtown North Platte, the canteen district seven o'clock doors open at 630. And like Darrell said, you know, just come in and be ready to gather and lift up the people of Ukraine in prayer. As we all know, they could definitely use the prayers right
Darrell Drullinger 4:54
now. You know, it's like you mentioned earlier don't know there's gonna be three there. 300 They're about where two or more gathered and his name is there with us. And so we're just trusting that
Scott Carlson 5:07
yeah, for sure if you want to be a part of it 308-530-5503 is where you can reach out to Darryl or just they show up. I'm sure they show up and say, Hey, I would love to lift up a prayer. Amen. We crane. Awesome. This Sunday, March 6 at the Fox Theater 7pm. Darrell, thanks for your time.
Darrell Drullinger 5:26
You bet Scott. Thanks for having me.
