Becky Stephens Anyone familiar with popular culture will know their screen names well. Ross, Rachel, Phoebe, Monica, Chandler, and Joey. We probably know some of their real names . David Schimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, Matthew Perry, and Matt Leblanc. But do you know James Michael Taylor, Maggie Wheeler, or Jane Sibbet? Without these people the stories that the stars of Friends tried to tell would be incomplete. Gunther, Janice and Carol (Ross' ex- wife) weren't the stars of the show but from supporting roles they made the episodes memorable. They are hidden figures. Often overlooked and even underappreciated but absolutely essential to the story. I want us to look at two very obscure characters this morning that show us that it takes more than stars to make the story complete. Exodus 1:8-21 (NLT) 8 Eventually, a new king came to power in Egypt who knew nothing about Joseph or what he had done. 9 He said to his people, “Look, the people of Israel now outnumber us and are stronger than we are. 10 We must make a plan to keep them from growing even more. If we don’t, and if war breaks out, they will join our enemies and fight against us. Then they will escape from the country.” 11 So the Egyptians made the Israelites their slaves. They appointed brutal slave drivers over them, hoping to wear them down with crushing labor.

  • Actors Centered on a Parade of fl Ying fi Sh, Cat-Taming Mice and Circus Animals
    ARAB TIMES, SUNDAY, MAY 30, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Obits Italy’s Carla Fracci dies Classic ‘Caterpillar’ author Carle dead NEW YORK, May 29, (AP): Eric Carle, the beloved children’s author and illustrator whose classic “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” and other works gave mil- lions of kids some of their earliest and most cherished literary memories, has died at age 91. Carle’s family says he died last Sunday at his sum- mer studio in Northampton, Massachusetts, with fam- ily members at his side. The family’s announcement was issued by Penguin Young Leaders. Through books like “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?” “Do You Want to Be My Friend?” and “From Head to Toe,” Carle introduced universal themes in simple words and bright colors. “The unknown often brings fear with it,” he once observed. “In my books I try to counteract this fear, to replace it with a positive message. I be- lieve that children are naturally creative and eager to learn. I want to show them that learn- ing is really both fascinating and fun.” “The Very Hungry Caterpil- lar,” published in 1969, was welcomed by parents and de- lighted kids with its story of the metamorphosis of a green and Carle red caterpillar with a touch of blue and brown to a proudly multi-colored butterfl y. Originally conceived as a book about a bookworm - called “A Week with Willi the Worm” - the hero, who eats through 26 different foods, was changed to a caterpillar on the advice of his editor. It has sold some 40 million copies and has been translated into 60 lan- guages, spawned stuffed animal caterpillars and has been turned into a stage play.

  • Victoria's Gettin' Higher Choir Model for Singers Around the Globe
    Victoria’s Gettin’ Higher Choir model for singers around the globe Sarah Petrescu | Times Colonist June 5, 2016 03:00 AM Previous Next Shivon Robinsong, Gettin’ Higher Choir founder and co-director: “I never cease to be amazed at what people singing together can accomplish.” Photograph By BRUCE STOTESBURY, Times Colonist Victoria’s Gettin’ Higher Choir is well-known for having more than 300 singers and for raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for impoverished Africans and local youth over the past 20 years. But what most Victorians might not know is the choir has been the model for dozens of other non-auditioned community choirs around the world — including a women’s prison choir in Mexico, a hospice choir and a choir started by a Hollywood actor. “I never cease to be amazed at what people singing together can accomplish,” said Shivon Robinsong, choir founder and co-director. The Gettin’ Higher Choir marks its 20th anniversary with concerts on June 10 and 11 at Alix Goolden Hall. They will be joined by internationally renowned singer-songwriter Ann Mortifee, one of Robinsong’s early mentors and one of the choir’s first guest artists. “She taught me early on that singing is about more than performing. It is primarily about healing and connection,” she said. When Robinsong started the Gettin’ High Choir in 1996, she had recently moved from Cortes Island, where she helped found Hollyhock retreat centre and a non-auditioned choir. In Victoria with two young daughters, she set out to create a safe place for people to sing without being judged.
