Combat Hunger with an Amazing Evening The Cotton Patch Gospel


Can you imagine the Gospel of Matthew set in rural Georgia with Jesus born in a trailer behind Motel 6?

Can you imagine how all musical instruments and vocals can be performed by one man simultaneously?

For answers, come out to enjoy the professional two-act production of the COTTON PATCH GOSPEL, originally written by Clarence Jordan, founder of Koinonia Farm in Georgia. Jordan’s vernacular rewrite was transformed into a popular bluegrass musical by the famous folksinger Harry Chapin (Cat’s in the Cradle). Actor/musician Phil Kaufman will show us how it can all be done by one innovative young man. This traveling production is a ministry of the Willow Springs Mennonite Church in Tiskilwa, IL, but has played in Brethren churches in Lanark, Franklin Grove, Montgomery, and at the Lombard Mennonite Church .
