Reformation Celebration

Our church Reformation Celebration was last Friday. It was a great evening, we really enjoyed the music, lectures, and play that made up the program for the evening. The play was on John Calvin, who was born 500 years ago this year. Christina had the opportunity to direct the play this year, and she asked me to take pictures at the dress rehearsal. So here are some of my favorites.

This was probably my favorite scene. Calvin and Farel are having a heated argument about whether Calvin will stay in Geneva to help Farel in his ministry.

Farel makes a point for why Calvin should stay. But Calvin says he's not staying...



"CALVIN!!"



"NO!!"



The curse upon Calvin's rest and labors, since he has refused to help Farel. But Calvin changes his mind a few moments later.



The "mob scene"--angry Genevans threaten Calvin and Farel

  1. I like the "action" pictures with Calvin and Farel, and the mob :)

    The lighting in the sanctuary isn't usually very good for pictures, but these are great! :)
