Event Description
Our newest event, Boots, Buckets & Barrows, is coming to Austin, TX on Saturday, August 11, 2018 at 7 pm at Austin Mennonite Church, 5801 Westminster Dr, Austin, TX 78723. This event is part theater/part auction, to raise awareness, funds, and volunteers for Mennonite Disaster Service. Please come prepared to bid on auction items or make a donation! All funds raised will benefit the work of MDS restoring homes and hope for those affected by natural disaster.
Featuring the show, The Jesus Stories: Faith, Forks & Fettuccine, written by and starring Ted Swartz, with original songs by Jeff Raught. There are many Gospel stories of Jesus gathered around tables. There was food to eat and food for thought, exploring who was invited to those tables and who showed up. The miracles of Jesus were sometimes ordinary stories with extraordinary results.
Ted and Jeff offer a fresh look at the Gospel stories and discover that when uncorked, these stories pour out sparkling drops of laughter Jesus must have found in the people he met along the way. Ted and Jeff have gathered these stories, mixing in a pinch of humor, a dollop of song and several servings of pasta with some cheese and wine on the side. Bon Appetit!
