For a family-friendly evening of entertainment, audiences need look no further than Fort Langley.
On Friday, May 20, a variety of local entertainers will descend on The Chief Sepass Theatre at Langley Fine Arts School, to perform a benefit concert for a pair of women headed to Thailand to share their faith.
Local singers Courtney Bridge and Zachary Park will perform alongside Source Dance Company and DRIME.
The event will be hosted by Miss Canada 2011, Langley’s Tara Teng.
This evening of entertainment is a fundraising event for Walnut Grove resident Samantha Pasielski and her DRIME teammate, Janna Cressman.
These energetic young ladies will be heading to Bangkok, Thailand for six months, to share the love of Jesus Christ through street drama and to set-up a DRIME team (Disciples Ready in Mobile Evangelism), a ministry of Power to Change (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ).
The girls will be creating a ministry from scratch with the Thai people, who can then minister to their own community through DRIME dramas.
This will be Pasielski’s second missions trip to Thailand. She spent three weeks in the country last summer and fell in love with the Thai people.
Heart of Hope – Destination Thailand, goes from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Advance tickets are $15, available at Blessings Christian Marketplace, 19638 Fraser Hwy.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m.. Come early to check out the raffle, DRIME booth and concession. Langley Fine Arts School is located at 9096 Trattle St. in Fort Langley.
