[Parish] AT LAST: THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MARK THIS SATURDAY

[Jim McKnight]

You are invited to a spectacular and dramatic presentation of scripture,
light, and movement when Michael Reardon prayerfully and powerfully
proclaims The Gospel of MARK, directed by Patrick Lane.  This is a
contemporary translation of scripture, proclaimed in the oral tradition of
the early church, designed with music, lighting, and costuming.  A reception
to meet the artists will follow in the Fireside Room.

Michael Reardon has memorized the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and
John, as well as the Book of Revelation, and performs them dramatically
worldwide.  He is a native of Anaconda, Montana.  

 

Patrick Lane, Director, Musician and Lighting Artist, has designed the
special effects and written the original music, all of which is done live
for each performance.  He is a native of Morrill, Nebraska.

 

This blend of voice and light, music and costuming, honors the Word of God
as a unique ministry of proclamation.  They have given over 1000
performances in cities throughout the United States, Canada, Japan, Hong
Kong, Republic of China, Europe, and Israel.  In Rome, they performed at the
Biblical Institute of the Gregorian University, and at the American Church
of Santa Susanna, and in Vatican City at North American College.  Their
greatly acclaimed performance has also taken them to the cradle of
Christianity:  Jerusalem, Capernaum, Tiberias, Nazareth, and the towns along
the shores of the Sea of Galilee.

 

The public is invited to attend, and to experience the power of the Word.  A
reception to meet the artists will follow the performance.  ###
