Judgement House slated in Brewton
The student ministry of First National Church in Brewton will be presenting its annual performance of Judgment House the first two weekends of November. Using the script entitled, "Where there's smoke, there's fire," the performance depicts the story of Whitney, a new Christian, who shares her faith with her two brothers. Her older brother, Darin rejects Christ, and her younger brother Billy initially rejects, but later accepts Christ. A party takes place while the parents are out of town during which a fire starts. The fire destroys the house and takes the lives of Darin and Whitney, while the younger brother Billy survives the blaze. You'll see the tragedy of bad decisions and the glory of accepting Christ as the story plays out.
Judgment House is an eight-scene walk-through drama with a powerful real-life story that helps bring out an understanding to what Christians believe happens after death. It is a depiction of how choices determine the eternal destiny of the people involved.
Through Judgment House presentation, thousand of people across the United States as well as internationally, have witnessed these depictions and, as a result, thousands of lives have been changed.
First Baptist Church would like to invite you or your group to participate by making a reservation to attend on one of the following dates: Nov. 4-6 and Nov. 11-13. Call the church office at 251-867-5769. First performance begins at 5 p.m. each night and groups are strongly advised to make reservations ASAP as time slots are filling up quickly. There is a $2 donation requested, with all proceeds going to ongoing hurricane relief work.
Because of the graphic nature of some scenes, it is strongly recommended that no one under age 10 accompany the groups. There is no child care available. www.judgementhouse.org
