Herberer Theater Tonight

We have been invited by the Director and the Performer to attend

An Evening With Harriet Tubman
January 15-17, 22-24
Time: 12:10 P.M. , Doors open at 11:40
**PREVIEW NIGHT Jan 14th, 7 P.M.**

The play was amazing!
Very good historical understanding.
She was so much more than our history has ever told us.

A dramatic narrative detailing the life of American Legend Harriet Tubman. Known as "The Moses of Her People" , Harriet Tubman is said to have led over 300 of her bondsmen out of slavery. Harriet Tubman led a life of reluctant fame and adventure. Based on documented events, this original piece is written and performed by Larrissa Brewington
Directed by Kandyce Hughes

Kandyce and I have been friends many years over 20, Her husband and Beloved are best friends of well over 30 years. We loaned the play a musket riffle for the performance and as a gift to our family we have been given admission for the whole family. This aught to be a lot of fun tonight. We are both Civil War buffs.

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
Return with Honor
The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
"HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
“Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
"O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
"No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"
