Home Schooled Teen Re-enacts Covenanters

A friend recently sent me this link to a story about a home schooled teen, Sarah Livingston, and her re-enactment of the Scottish Covenanters for a Mississippi History Day Competition at USM this past June where she won first place in the Performance category and the Overall prize in the high school division.

Sarah is quoted in the news story as saying she wrote her own script and found her own props for the ten minute performance before the judges.  To prepare for the competition she not only studied the history of the Covenanters, but she also studied the Scottish accent to make her performance more realistic.

In my opinion, this is quite remarkable for a seventeen year-old young lady!  May the good Lord bless Sarah Livingston and her quest to introduce others to the Scottish Covenanters through historical drama; she truly appears to be a twenty-first century Lady of the Covenant.
