Take my life and let it be,
Consecrated Lord to thee
Take my moments and my days, Let them flow in ceaseless
praise.
Take my hands and let them move, At the impulse of they love
Take my feet and let them be, Swift and beautiful for thee.
Take my voice and let them sing, Always only for my king
Take my lips and let them be, Filled with messages from
thee.
Take my intellect and use, Every power as thou shall choose
Take my self and I will be, Ever only all for thee.
The Theatre of Gifts was formed on 2nd November 1991, by a
group of youth with a passion for the performing arts. We
were one of the first few youth ministries to be formed in
Christ the King and the only one centered in evangelising
God’s word through dance and drama. Till now, we strive to
carry on that same mission and we believe in using our
bodies as instruments to carry out the calling that God has
given to us.
We take our inspiration from the bible and transform His
word into performances that can reach out to and be enjoyed
by all. It is amazing how people’s hearts can be touched by
just a simple skit which they can relate to. Our most recent
productions were ‘This is My Body, This is My Blood’ (April
’07) and ‘Secrets Exposed’ (December ’06). Besides the small
skits we perform throughout the year at youth masses and
other various parish events, we also have other some key
events in our calendar. These include the Passion Play,
Recitals (where we gather with our friends and family to
show our love for God in the small items that we have
prepared) and Celebration of Gifts for the catechism youth.
However we aren’t just a group of ‘drama mamas’ and we aim
to share our passion for the theatre with other people. One
major way we do this is through our annual Children’s Drama
Workshop. Throughout the 3 days of the workshop, we teach
the children lessons from the bible through fun activities
involving dance and drama. We ourselves continuously hone
our theatre skills by having drama input sessions, attending
drama workshops and going together as a group to watch plays
and performances.
Friendship plays a big part in our closely knitted group and
besides the retreats and camps that we have at least once a
year, we also have regular TOG outings for us to relax and
spend some time together.
Join Us!
Our weekly meetings and prayer sessions are held on
Saturdays at 12.30pm in church. We welcome all youths aged
13 years and above to join us. No prior experience in the
field of acting is required; all you need is a love for
God’s words and his people. To find out more, please contact
