Faces & Places Ministries will present its original Easter play, “Thy Kingdom Come,” on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Church of the Good Shepherd United Methodist in Tyrone.
The musical drama traces the life of Jesus from his discussions with the priests in the Temple at age 12 through his resurrection.
The audience is transported to the streets of Jerusalem, Bethany and Samaria and experience what it was like to walk with Jesus.
According to Faces and Places Ministries founder Drew Baker, this is “a marvelous story of the Kingdom that is to come, a Kingdom that we can inherit because of what one Man did for us.”
The cast includes Drew Baker, Erik Baker, James Beatty, Betsy Beck, Kathleen Beck, Diane Brinkman, Michael Brinkman, Frank A. Filkosky, Frank R. Filkosky, Linda Filkosky, Sabrina Filkosky, Mary Edna Lykens, Pastor TM Talbot-Moses, William Moses, Brandy Russell, Jared Shaffer, Josh Shaffer, Rachael Shaffer, Joyce Swab and Pauline Wineland.
A number of people were also involved “behind the scenes” including Karen Baker, Michael Brinkman, Donna Derdel, Josh Shaffer, Pauline Stout, Pauline Wineland, Tracy Miller, Jessica Miller, Valerie Smith, and Chris Thatcher.
Two newcomers to Faces and Places Ministries shared their impressions.
Joyce Swab summed up the message in one word – “Inspiring.” Diane Brinkman shared her experience of this “wonderful witness” to the power of God\’s love through Jesus.
“I had goosebumps twice during our performance,” she said.
