Event Description

Listening for Grace – Stonewall, MB

Ted Swartz's most sought-after show, Listening for Grace, is coming to Stonewall, MB on Thursday, October 15, 2015 at 7:00 pm at Stonewall United Church, 369 1st Avenue North, Stonewall, MB. Hosted by Stonewall UC and area churches.

Admission is $10 and tickets can be purchased at Stonewall UC 204-467-5469 or unitedc@mymts.net

 In Listening for Grace, Ted Swartz uses his distinctive humor to give voice to our fears and hopes when a faith community engages in questions around sexuality and same-sex relationships. It’s about a father’s journey, a church’s struggle and a search for commonality.

Listening for Grace follows the story of a widowed father whose son has just come out as gay. Through his relationships with his son, an estranged cousin, people in his church and a pastor who deals with issues of sexuality in the Bible, the main character is challenged by many different viewpoints and experiences.

It’s a piece about church. It’s a piece about fatherhood. It’s a piece about community. It’s a piece about our sexuality. And it’s an entertaining and enlightening piece about openness and love.
