Praise the Lord!

We are preparing for our 2023 Christmas Production, and we are looking for actors/actresses. This year’s presentation will be a comedy stage play and we’re looking for those that would like to participate in our production.

The casting call will take place this coming Sunday, October 8th directly following the morning worship service, in the Chapel. We will have impromptu readings and a decision will be made by the following Sunday.

The synopsis and the cast list are below. All that are interested are encouraged to be present this Sunday, October 8th directly following the morning worship service in the chapel


Play Synopsis:

Whispering Pines is a small, homey assisted living facility, but for how long? On the death of the owner, the facility has passed to his daughter, who is determined to unload this “albatross.” She has lined up buyers but there’s only one problem. Or really, six problems: the current residents. And together they agree they are not going out without a fight! Knowing that the new owner must find another facility to take them in, they come up with a plan. It’s an elaborate scheme that will ensure that no one else will accept them. So “Operation: Whispering Pines”!
