Social-Light

Ever wonder what Christian Voices get up to after the final curtain falls?

Well, as with all our performances, after Let His Light Shine we got together for an extremely sociable buffet in the early spring sun.

A wonderful day that followed five excellent performances.

We were also able to acknowledge several new members to the group and these even included two debutants!

The play concentrates on the people of Jerusalem and what might have been their reaction to the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ.

If you want to download or read the script, it can be found on the main Let His Light Shine page, which is here.

Read all about it – The Light that Shone

In April 2014 Christian Voices were privileged in being able to put on a Lenten play called Let His Light Shine.

The play follows several characters, including St. Peter the Disciple, as they discuss the events around the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ.

Several programmes were produced and they can all be found linked off the main Let His Light Shine page, which can be found here.

Review of Let His Light Shine: another brilliant drama

Our founding father, Alan Young, has received these wonderful comments from Sandy Willard, a member of the Christchurch Methodist Church, Ninfield.


Dear Alan,

Well done to you all for yet another brilliant drama. As you know, I always enjoy your productions – seeing ‘the other side’ of stories we know so well, gives one food for thought, and today was no exception. Everyone spoke so clearly too, we had no difficulty in hearing or following the story – I think it is amazing what you achieve with so few member in your group. How they all remember their words, I will never understand!
I also thoroughly enjoy the music side of these events. I spoke to Mr & Mrs Chamberlin as I left the chapel and congratulated them, and especially for the inclusion of their younger daughter. Both the girls do so well, and I think it is lovely that they are included as they are. The same comments of course, go to young Jamie for his part as Mark – he was so confident. Congratulations to you all, and I look forward to your next presentation.

Best wishes, Sandy Willard.


Thanks for the wonderful comments.
Hope to see you at our next play later this year!

Christian Voices provide Lent reflection

Following closely behind “Ezra” we have our Lent play “Let His Light Shine“.
In this play we look to St. Peter’s denials of Jesus and the affect Jesus’ arrest, Crucifixion and Resurrection may have had on those in Jerusalem at the time.
