THEATER AT FIRST CONGREGATIONAL!
On May 9, members of our congregation and guests saw the play "MY HIDING PLACE: Recollections of Corrie ten Boom.” Words like “moving,” “incredible,” and “thought-provoking” were among the many comments made by audience members.
Corrie ten Boom was the first licensed female watchmaker in the Netherlands who became a heroine of the Resistance, a survivor of Hitler's concentration camps, and one of the most remarkable ministers of hope in the twentieth century.
In World War II, she and her family risked their lives to help Jews and underground workers escape from the N***s. In 1944, their lives were forever altered when they were betrayed, arrested, and thrown into the infamous N**i death camps. Only Corrie among her family survived.
This is her incredible true story--and ultimately the story of how faith, hope, and forgiveness triumphed over unthinkable evil. For 35 years, millions have seen that there is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still. Now The Hiding Place, repackaged for a new generation of readers and audience-goers, continues to declare that God's love will overcome, heal, and restore.
