Come Celebrate Faith, Friendship & Theater!
Mark your calendars for a very special afternoon on Sunday, October 26th at 3:00 PM, as we come together for an unforgettable blend of drama, deep questions, and community. Milwaukee’s acclaimed Christian theater company, Acacia Theatre, brings to life Freud's Last Session—a riveting, heart-and-mind-stirring production that asks:
- What if C.S. Lewis and Sigmund Freud sat down for a conversation?
- What would happen when one of history’s greatest defenders of faith meets the father of psychoanalysis?
Set on the very day England enters WWII, this powerful play by Mark St. Germain imagines a spirited, witty, and profound dialogue between these two titans—exploring God, suffering, love, and the meaning of life. It’s a thoughtful, often humorous exchange filled with insight, humanity, and grace. After the curtain falls, the conversation continues! Join us for dinner at a local restaurant where we’ll share our thoughts, reflect on the performance, and enjoy time with fellow parishioners.
????️ Tickets are just $12, but seating is limited. So don’t wait! To reserve your spot, contact John Paul Shimek, our SJE Director of Lifelong Faith Formation, at jpshimek@stjohns-grfd.org. Let’s make it an afternoon to remember—full of faith, fellowship, and the magic of live theater!
