When I was asked to help raise the funds needed to complete a teenage-produced documentary on the life of Nick Vujicic, I knew the Northland secondary student body needed to be involved. It seemed like an obvious opportunity to serve considering the positive impact still being felt on the NCS campus since our visit from this passionate follower of Christ, who happened to be born without arms and legs. Nick inspired and challenged us, so this was our chance to serve him in return.   
 
An old-school car wash was the first suggestion. As a veteran Youth Pastor, my fingers are still wrinkled from a career of car washes. I asked Saphrin, who works with Dallas Christian Filmmakers, to wait patiently for an idea from the Lord on how to raise the final $1600.00 needed for the production costs. A few days later, as I was walking towards Zach Guerrero, who is a student and talented drummer on the campus of NCS, I felt in that instant how God wanted us to raise the money.  I immediately asked Zach if he would consider performing a long drum solo in the name of Jesus and Zach immediately agreed, almost as if he expected me to ask.  It was so cool~

The “Drumathon” was born and Zach, during a Friday Chapel service, played the drums continually for 45 minutes!  It was sweet and the video is already on YouTube.  Students donated loose change and bills in coffee cans, which were being circulated during the performance.  In sum, the NCS student body raised the needed funds and God was glorified.  Our prayer is for the ministry God is working through Nick Vujicic to continue to advance.
