A Dickens of an Evening!
This Friday December at 7:30 at Trinity!
You don't want to miss this wonderful evening of theatre
and plum pudding. Here are two more reviews
hot off the press from their traveling show.
From Ottawa, First Baptist:
Please express to Jeff my sheer delight with his one-man show last night here in Ottawa. It was a dramatic romp through Dicken's classic tale that was greatly enjoyed by our son and 4 of our grandchildren. It was a bold undertaking that was excellent in every way, from the set to lighting, to the wonderful music by Bruce and your brief explanation of the work you do internationally. Thanks from both Rhoda and myself for this excellent effort.
And this one from Roncesvalles United Church: :
Thank you for coming to town and igniting our festive season with heart-grabbing artistry, empathy for people who suffered in 1843 as today, hope for the future, and musical synapses to ignite all the parts. Very many people have told us how they were touched by what they learned of Partera, plus the performance, and the music.

Rev. LeeAnn McKenna, was in very fine company indeed at the Lester Randall Fellowship Preaching Fellowship at Yorkminster Baptist Church in Toronto this last week. The topic this year was Reaching and Preaching for Peace, and both Rev. McKenna and Rev. Rowan Williams, the former Archbishop of Canterbury and key note speaker, spoke and taught with passion and intelligence.
Rev. McKenna, representing our partner Partera Peacebuilders International led a worship entitled: Our Violent Scriptures: What’s a Christian Peacemaker to do? as well as leading an interactive story telling as part of one of the evenings beautiful worship services that was open to the public to a full house.
