"Godspell..."

On Friday night, the crew of the Africa Mercy was given a real treat.  For about three weeks, some of the crew have been putting together their version of Godspell. The International Lounge was transformed into a theatre environment, and they did an amazing presentation of GodspellGodspell is a musical based on the Gospel of Matthew (and some of Luke) telling the parables of Jesus interspersed with music from the 1970's.
Opening Scene-Tower of Babel.

Dan is John the Baptist-Preparing the way of the Lord
 Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord..."
 Baptism of Jesus
 O Bless the Lord..."
 Bless the the Lord...
 Bless the the Lord...
 Parable of the Unmerciful Servant-Alisia as the King
Joshua, the unmerciful servant, in jail
Parable of the Sheep and the Goats-these are the goats...
These are the sheep...
 All good gifts...
The woman caught in adultery...
Passover dinner...
Crucifixion...
Jesus is risen...
Finale!

Thank you to all the cast and crew and the amazing job you did blessing the crew with Godspell!
