THE FEAST OF LIFE"The Feast of Life", stories from the Gospel of Luke is a modern musical written by composer Marty Haugen. Among the songs it presents such famous gospel stories as the Good Samaritan and Prodigal Son which are familiar to most people. However this musical presentation really brings them to life and presents them in a new and fresh way. The cast and musicians of 50 people range in ages from 7 to 50 and it is a great way for all ages to mix together. The teenagers particularly enjoy being part of this group. The music is great and the gospel really comes alive. The Feast of Life is on Thursday 25th and Friday 26th October in St. Cronan's Church, Brackenstown, Swords. Tickets are €10, €7 and and family ticket for €20. Available from the Parish office, and after mass or phone 8409859.
