TELS TRIP TO FORT MILL
DINNER SHOW
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20
Four crosses. Four men. One man is a murderer. Two are thieves. The fourth, a carpenter from Nazareth. Pilate shouts to the crowd and the stones echo back: "I will save one man and crucify the other! Whom do you choose?" And though the cry of the crowd that day set only one man free -- it saved us all. This is the story of
The Fourth Cross.
Dinner guests enjoy a scrumptious meal delivered directly to your seat. Dinner is served by the performing cast.
Meal: Boneless beef short rib
Roasted vegetables on flat bread
Couscous with dried cranberries
Homemade bread pudding
Sweet iced tea or water
The show follows the meal.
We will leave Living Springs at 10 am and should be back by 5:00 pm. The cost will be $35 which will include dinner, show and gas for the bus. We have room for 15 people on the bus, so it will be first come, first serve. Please contact Beverly Hoppert or Jeff Lummel for information.
