The Rochester-based storyteller’s group Women of the Well will present the drama “Certain Women” at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, 14 State Street, Brockport, November 11, from 7 to 8 p.m.
In the Gospel of Luke, a story tells of “certain women” who followed Jesus from Galilee all the way to Jerusalem, even to the cross. These women poured out their resources in service to Jesus and his disciples. One of these women, known throughout the centuries for her devotion to Jesus, was Mary of Magdala.
In this generation “certain women” have faithfully followed Jesus, giving all they had, and for some, giving even their lives, as with the four American women who were martyred in El Salvador on December 2, 1980. These women were Sister Maura Clarke, Sister Dorothy Kazel, Sister Ita Ford and Jean Donovan. Women of the Well will tell their dramatic stories, ending the evening with a Stations of the Cross in the women’s own words.
The presentation is free and open to the public. For more information, contact St. Luke’s at 637-6650.
