When? Sunday evening, September 26th

What time? 6:30pm

Where? Sanctuary of Mt. Bethel UMC – 4385 Lower Roswell Road, Marietta, GA

Tickets? A love offering will be collected

Come see some of Cobb County’s finest actors and singers:  Thom and Nicole Gray, Tom and Mylinda Milley, Lee Herring, Charlie Marus and Diane Parrish; as we bring to life the Camp Hope Story (working year-round with inmate’s children) through the eyes of the Campers, Custodial parents, incarcerated parents, counselors and teachers…

The production is a wonderful event for the entire family – however – child care is available for younger children, should you prefer.  I’d also like to ask you to consider bringing some of your friends to introduce them to our ministry – we love new faces!

Thank you and I pray we see you then!

Rev. Diane Parrish
Sr. Associate Mt. Bethel UMC
