Youth Group News! Virginia Repertory Theater Presents "I Have a Dream" ~ Info provided by EJCooley

This email is to inform you about February's youth event.  I am excited to announce that the Theatrical Theater at Willow Lawn will be presenting a compelling dramatization of the life and times of one of the most influential and charismatic leaders of the American Century: Dr. Martin Luther King.

Inspired by the arrest of Rosa Parks, Dr. King puts his philosophy of nonviolent protest to work.  He gains recognition and becomes the dominant force in the Civil Rights Movement during its decade of greatest achievement.

This play is scheduled for Saturday, February 13th at 10:30 a.m. and is located at the Virginia Repertory Theater, located at The Shops at Willow Lawn, 1601 Willow Lawn Drive.

The play is suggested for youth ages 7 and up and the cost is $16 per person.  I have spoken to Fr. Jim and he has informed me that the Youth Ministry can cover the ticket cost of all youth attending as well as two-three parents/chaperones who have already been through VIRTUS training.  Please let me know if you, your child/children, or youth aged family member would like to attend.

Please contact me no later than February 9th, 2016.
