They are working with Christian Performing Kids (CPK), a group of seventh- and eighth-grade students from Seneca Valley Middle School, at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Zelienople. CPK is rehearsing God's Way, an original musical composed by Bill Brewer, pastor at St. Paul. The Westminster students have been invited to intern with CPK during their summer production.
