In Response to the Clergy Abuse Crisis
|
The Newman Center will be hosting Michael Mack’s “powerful” (Washington Post) and “magnificent” (New York Theatre Guide) one-man, 90-minute play Conversations with My Molester: A Journey of Faith on Saturday, April 6 at 7 p.m. Mack's boyhood dream of becoming a Catholic priest ended when his pastor first invited him to the rectory. This play is Mack's spiritual autobiography – a true story of trespass, grace, and the odyssey of healing that led him back to the Catholic Church. His multiple prize-winning work has been praised by secular and religious sources alike. A post-show discussion will follow featuring Michael Mack and clergy. This event is free and open to the public. Note: mature themes and content - may be potentially unsettling or re-traumatizing. For more information, please visit michaelmacklive.com.
