'They Were Raptured'

opens in College Park Friday

Open Word Christian

Ministries in Union City will present a play this weekend, designed to

offer a Christian alternative to the Halloween season.

"They

Were Raptured" is said to be a spiritually moving and entertaining

dramatization about a group of individuals who experience life-changing

decisions and blessings of the Rapture.

The play will

be presented Friday and Saturday, Oct. 27 and 28, at Benjamin Banneker

High School, 5935 Feldwood Rd. in College Park, with performances scheduled

for 7:30 p.m. nightly. The play is designed for the entire family. Characters

portrayed will include a minister, a business woman, a college student,

and an elderly woman.

Open word Ministries

is under the pastoral leadership of Pastors Gary K. and Maya Taylor, who

commented on the play:

"In these

last days, God has called for the body of Christ to minister to all people

in a variety of different ways," said Pastor Maya Taylor. "While

in the midst of the Halloween season of ghosts, witches and other fearful

celebrations and antics, "They Were Raptured" serves as an excellent

alternative to bring forth a message of instilling the importance of making

God-fearing decisions, while facing peer pressure, drugs, infidelity,

religiosity, and a host of worldly sins."

Admission donations

are $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 6-12. Contact Debra Walker

at 770-964-3379 for more information on securing individual or group tickets.
