This Sunday, March 6 (at both services) the children of the church will present "Table for Five...Thousand".  Found in all four New Testament gospels, the story reveals how one boy with five loaves of bread and two fish and a willingness to share leads to the miracle of Jesus that fed the multitudes. Later, the event reveals an even greater truth as Jesus tells his disciples, "I am the Bread of Life. Those who come to me will never go hungry." It shows how even the most humble among us can do great things with God's help.  Even the congregation that Sunday will have a role to play in the telling of this special story.

ACT1 Theater Presents: Barbecuing Hamlet by Pat Cook. Wouldn't it be great fun to direct William Shakespeare's "Hamlet"? That was what Margo Daley always thought...until she is hired to do just that by a renovated funeral home. They DO have a couple of conditions, however. Margo has to make the play a melodrama, so the audience will know when to throw the popcorn. And they can't be too loud because the lady who lives under the theater bangs her cane on the stage. Oh, and by the way, it has to take place in the Old West. Eccentric characters come out of the woodwork in this riotous farce as Margo and her troupe of misguided actors find out what it's like when they begin "Barbecuing Hamlet."

March 4 - 27 (Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm with Sunday Matinees on March 13, 20 & 27 at 2:00pm).  Special Pricing For APC Members!

Adults: $10; Children under 12 and Seniors over 60: $8

Tickets available in the lobby, by phone at 770-751-0033 ext 225 or online at www.act1theater.com
