Mission: Indescribable! Or “KCRM STAFF CAUGHT ON CAMERA!”

Posted by Julie Larocco on August 23, 2011

I’m not sure who came up with the idea, but the minute I heard it, I started rubbing my hands together and snickering in an evil, melodramatic way.  ”Yah-ah-ah,” I responded.  ”Grab your camera and let’s go!”

Within minutes, Chris Abke and I were making our way into KCRM staff offices, shoving our cameras in employees’ faces and uttering six very frightening words: “Describe KCRM in 60 seconds!  Go!”

People were terrified, not to mention irritated and threatening … but we stood firm.  ”I’m filming,” I whined.  ”Say something.”  (Chris says he was far more professional in his approach, but how professional can you really be when all you have to work with is your smartphone camera?)

The result of our assault on the KCRM staff can be found in this video.  We think we’ve done a great job of exploiting our KCRM teammates. (Kudos to Chris Abke for cobbling this together with iMovie and a few tricks.)  And in the end, most of ‘em smiled as they watched the video and laughed at each other.  It’s a good thing we’ve got a forgiving staff.   Now … what would YOU say about KCRM in 60 second … GO!

I look up and see the LORD.
He smiles at Me.
To think that he smiled AT someone
who isn’t EVEN worthy to kiss his feet.
And TO think that I would meet
The SON of GOD!
AMAZING!!!!!!!
I will PRAISE him
HALLELUJAH!!!
HALLELUJAH!!!
He DIED for ME!
HALLELUJAH!!!
I need you LORD
He said, “Come to HEAVEN and eat at my table.”
I LOOK up in disbelief saying
“YOUR TABLE???!!” “Lord, DO you know who I am? I am a SINNER, I don’t deserve heaven!”
and he answers
“But my DAUGHTER that’s why I died”
I LOVE YOU.
