Neighborhood Church presents “Cotton Patch Gospel”

The Neighborhood Church of the Brethren hosted the musical “Cotton Patch Gospel” on Saturday, September 17, at 7:00 p.m. This one-man musical was presented by Phillip Kaufmann, a Mennonite performer. The “Cotton Patch Gospel” was originally a book written by Clarence Jordan of Koinonia Farms in Georgia. It was adapted into a play by Tom Key and Russell Trez. Harry Chapin then produced the play into a musical, writing both music and lyrics. Neighborhood members and friends enjoyed an exciting and inspirational evening. The Neighborhood Church of the Brethren is located at 155 Boulder Hill Pass, Montgomery, Illinois.
