Counting myself, there were 70 people who attended the Musical Dramatization of Mary Magdalene on Tuesday evening (6/1/10) @CLCValpo in the New Sanctuary.
Keri Burman's performance was spirit filled.
The fellowship that followed among all who lingered and enjoyed refreshments and each others company in our gathering space was priceless.
A big thanks to those who assisted in any and all ways to make this event come together!
God Bless you all
Sincerely, Grace Safrin Evangelism Chair Christ Lutheran Church Valparaiso, Indiana
p.s. for those of you who missed this event, and for those who enjoyed it so much to want to come again....watch for the Women's Bible Study group announcement in winter (before Christmas) as we plan to have Keri back to perform the story of Mary of Nazareth!
Come join us in our NEW Sanctuary@CLCValpo located at the corner Of Campbell St. & Vale Park Road
for a wonderful reenactment of a Woman of the Bible.
Often mistakenly characterized in popular writings, Mary Magdalene was an early follower of Jesus Christ and witness to His glorious resurrection. Through songs and monologues, Ms. Burman brings the scriptural based story of Mary Magdalene to life, right before the audience, with spirit filled passion and a God gifted voice!
The Songs:
See, What a Morning
Heal the Wound
Where the Nails Were
I Don’t Want to Go
They Could Not
The Monologues:
Mary’s Introduction, Healed from Demon Possession, (Luke 8:1-3)

Remember the saying "April Showers Bring May Flowers" ?
Rainstorms are common in Spring and Summer and with them sometimes you can catch a glimpse of a rainbow like this photo taken during the storm this past weekend.
Rainbows are a visual reminder of God's promise to us. Here is the Message Bible version of just one of many promises... so when you see a rainbow in the midst of a storm this spring or summer, remember God's many promises to us :)
Genesis 9:12-17 (The Message)
12-16 God continued, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and everything living around you and everyone living after you. I'm putting my rainbow in the clouds, a sign of the covenant between me and the Earth. From now on, when I form a cloud over the Earth and the rainbow appears in the cloud, I'll remember my covenant between me and you and everything living, that never again will flood waters destroy all life. When the rainbow appears in the cloud, I'll see it and remember the eternal covenant between God and everything living, every last living creature on Earth."
17 And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant that I've set up between me and everything living on the Earth."
