Come enjoy great music and a message of hope as we explore favorite
Broadway musicals and deeper spiritual themes in our annual “God on
Broadway” series. Shows in this year’s series are: "The Lion King”
(August 2), “Man of La Mancha” (August 9), “The Music Man” (August 16),
and “Maybe Happy Ending” (August 23). Our pianist/composer John
Steiner and guest musicians will perform songs from each production. 

Rev. Cynthia Cochran-Carney will explore meaningful and humorous
connections between Broadway shows and biblical stories, saying “The
arts inform all aspects of our lives, including our spiritual lives.
Many of the musicals look at challenging social issues, including
racism, poverty, exploitation, and diversity. In this time of
polarization and division, the arts can open us up to see joys and
challenges from someone else’s perspective.” 

Sing, laugh and learn valuable life lessons with us in the sanctuary on
Sundays in August at 9:30 am at First Presbyterian Church of San Rafael,
1510 Fifth Avenue The building is handicap accessible. The services
are livestreamed on YouTube. 

For more information, visit <a href="https://file:///C:/Users/Cynthia/FPCSR%20Dropbox/Cynthia%20Cochran-Carney/Cynthia's%20files/letterhead%20%232/www.fpcsr.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.fpcsr.org</a> or call 415-456-6760
