Mrs.
Williams: Today we have the story of the
first day of school. It is just like any
other first day of school for Dora and Abigail (they enter and look around). They look for their classes, and say Hi to
friends, but this day will turn out to be anything but ordinary **Alien Noise**
(exits).

 

Dora: Hey, Abby!
How was your summer? Mine was
fantastic, cruising the Mediterranean, as
usual. Did you do any shopping? I spent hours in the malls, buying everything
I wanted. Did you meet any cute
guys? I saw a glimpse of Prince William
on theRiviera. I hear he got engaged though, well

 

Abigail: Great, Yes and No..(looks off to the
distance)

 

Dora: Abby!
Youre not listening to anything Im saying.

 

Abigail:
Oh, sorry. Hey did you see that new guy over there
(Reggie enters).

Ive
never seen him before, he looks kinda different, like hes not from around
here.

 

Dora: Yeah, not from anywhere around here. Look at his clothes, where did he buy them,
the Gap from Outer Space?

 

Abigail: Well maybe we should say Hi to him, you know
welcome him to our planet, I mean school.

 

Dora: Planet!
You are so funny, yeah maybe he IS an alien. Come on lets go to class (exits).

 

Abigail: Wouldnt that be creepy if he really was an
alien **Alien Noise**?? What was that? Uh, oh, time for class (exits).

 

Mrs.
Williams: Class, lets get started
(students enter) I think we all know
each other, but we have a new student. Reggie, please introduce yourself.

 

Reggie: Hi, everybody, my name is Reginald Cadet, but my friends
call me Reggie. We just moved here a few
weeks ago from Neptune City,
New Jersey. Have any of you heard of Neptune
before, it was a gas living there, but Im excited about living here in Terra
now.

 

Mrs.
Williams: Tell us some things you like
to do, Reggie. You probably have a lot
in common with students in our class.

 

Reggie: Okay, at my old home I had a great church and
youth group that I went to every Sunday and Wednesday. Wed get together and do Bible Study, play
games and pray together. Our favorite
activity though was going to serve dinner and worship at the Homeless Shelter
every Friday night. I hope I can find
activities like that here.

 

Dora: (Whispers to Abby) Church on Fridays, Sundays and
Wednesdays?? Who ever heard of
that? Maybe this guy is an alien.

 

Abigail: He did say he was from Neptune?? If this guy is an alien, dont you think we
should tell someone, like the police, or the army, or those guys from Star
Trek? **Alien Noise**( students exit)

 

Mrs.
Williams: The next day things did not
get easier for Reggie. Every time he
tried to share something about his church, or outreach activities the students
kept treating him like he was from outer space. (Dora and Reggie enter)

 

Reggie: Hey, Dora?
I heard that the school is organizing a Canned Food Drive for the needy, do you know how
I sign up to help?

 

Dora: I dont think so.

 

Reggie: How about the Community Clean Up Crew, have
you ever helped out with that?

 

Dora: I dont know how life was on Neptune, Reggie,
but here on Earth those activities are not cool. (Abby enters wearing foil
hat) Abby, what is that on your head?

 

Abigail: Its the latest fashion in Anti- Alien
Headgear, (whispers to Dora) It keeps him from looking into my brain.

 

Dora: I dont think you have that much to hide, but
maybe you are right. Lets tell everyone
to stay away from this new guy, hes definitely OUT THERE!

 

Mrs.
Williams: Even though the girls spread rumors about him being an alien, Reggie continued to get involved in his new community and tried to get his classmates involved as well. They kept thinking he was strange, but slowly
Reggies enthusiasm for helping others began to wear off. (Reggie and Abby
enter)

 

Abigail: Thanks for inviting me to Youth Group last
night, Reggie. I had a great time. Some people even asked me to make foil hats
for them. I think I have started a new
trend.

 

Reggie: Im glad you had fun, maybe we can get Dora
to come next week.

 

Abigail: I dont know, lets ask her, but that might
be the night when she gets her weekly massage, facial and mud pack.

 

Reggie: Mud pack?
And people say Im strange. (Dora
enters)

 

Abigail: Hey, Dora, do you want to go with Reggie, me
and the rest of the cheerleading squad to sing hymns at the Old Folks
Home?

 

Dora: All the cheerleaders are going? When did I become the one left out? When did I become the alien?

 

Reggie: Listen Dora, if it is alien to do things for
others before ourselves, and reach out to the needy in the name of Jesus, than
I guess I am the biggest alien out there, but wed love to have you join us.

 

Abigail: Yeah, come on Dora, its fun to help
others. Ill even make you a foil hat,
everyones wearing them now.

 

Dora: Well, okay, Ill give it a try.

 

Reggie: Awesome!
Lets go everybody! (students exit, teacher enters)

 

Mrs.
Williams: The Bible says in I Peter
2:11-12 Dear friends, I urge you, as
aliens and strangers in the world to abstain from sinful desires, which war
against your soul. Live such good lives
among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your
good deeds, and glorify God.

Reggie
was a great example to his friends and community, so dont be afraid to do
whats right, even if its ALIEN!
**Alien Noise**
