MUSTARD SEED JUNIOR  – NEW PRODUCTION

Children in Grade 1 – 8 (and their parents/caregivers) are invited to and information session Sunday January 22nd at 12 pm in the Fireside Room. Rehearsals begin after March Break. This year we are planning a production of Malice in the Palace. The story of Esther has all the ingredients for a great Hollywood thriller—a beautiful and spirited heroine, a dark-hearted villain, a twisting plot full of danger and intrigue, and a cliffhanger of a climax. And in the midst of this excitement we find a powerful message—the smallest person acting bravely can make an enormous difference.
