AN INVITATION TO
“THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JESUS QUEEN OF HEAVEN”
by Jo Clifford

Friday 24 April, 7:00pm (doors open 6:30pm)

Join Queen Jesus in a radical, uplifting theatrical ritual where bread is shared, wine is poured, and familiar stories are reimagined through the life of a transgender Jesus.

This acclaimed production blends theatre, storytelling, and ritual into a deeply moving experience that leaves audiences feeling renewed and uplifted. Award-winning and internationally celebrated, The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven has toured globally for over a decade and inspired a landmark Brazilian production that transformed theatre culture in the country.

Alongside the Brazilian Queen Jesus, interpretations have emerged worldwide — including Uruguayan, Australian, German, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, and most recently, a Black American Queen Jesus.

Critics say:

“One of the most remarkable journeys in recent theatre history.” (The Scotsman)

“A humane, mischievous and deeply loving solo performance that reaffirms everyone’s right to live free of prejudice.” (The Guardian)

Audience responses:

“This is what church should feel like — enlightening, expansive, peaceful. Thank you.”

“I can believe again. You moved me deeply.”

“A beautiful celebration of life, love, wonder and humanity.”

“Outstanding. In my view, this is who Jesus was.”

Clobber Passages Teaching Sessions

by | posted in: Announcements, Events | 0

Most of us have experienced some parts of the Bible being used to argue that LGBT people are not enfolded in the love and grace of God as we are. At MCC we know that this is not true, and we have the biblical understanding to back that up. If you have ever been ‘clobbered’ with these passages of the Bible and been unsure what they really mean for us, or wished you knew how to answer these accusations, our Clobber Passages learning sessions in July are for you!

We will look at these bits of Scripture, and see how the true message of God’s all-inclusive love is truly there, and that honest biblical study lies behind our assurance.

Four sessions, held on each Sunday in July at 4:30 at the church.

If you can’t make it to the church building, don’t despair – we will cover the same material online a little later in the summer.

An Interfaith service of remembrance on Friday, 21st November 2014, 7pm, in the church.

This is the time when we remember all the lives lost to transphobic violence and bullying, and the human cost of ignorance and fear directed at God’s transgender children, and commit ourselves to ending such loss, and bringing about love, inclusion and wholeness for people of all gender identities.

MCC North London will be having our own Trans Remembrance service the following Sunday, 23rd November 2014.
