Jesus Jubilee at Coronation Park Thousands of Oakville-area Christians are expected to gath er this Saturday, June 3rd, for an artistic celebration of Christian history and Christian unity, involving drama, dance, mime and music. Jesus Jubilee 2000 is being organized by an interdenomina tional group of Oakville's church members in recognition of 2000 years since the birth of Jesus Christ. The 90-minute program will follow the evolution of the Christian church through a con temporary dramatization. The event will also showcase some of the best and most diverse Christian entertainers the Oakville area has to offer. Admission is free. "By reflecting on the events through history, we as Christians, are able to focus on the positive, and sometimes not so positive effect, we have had in the world," says Bruxy Cavey, pastor of Upper Oaks Community Church and co chair of the Jesus Jubilee 2000 organizing committee. "In the end, however, it's all about Jesus, and how we can make his presence known today." "Jesus Jubilee 2000 is an ideal way for us, as Christian churches, to look past the differ ences we might have and recog nize the jubilee in a joyous and dynamic way," says Fr. Ted Slaman, pastor of St. Michael's Roman Catholic Church and chair of the Jesus Jubilee 2000 To von to French School Bilingual Coeducational Age 3 - OAC Extended childcare International Baccalaureate S um m er P rogram m es Upcoming Open House: Join Us In Mississauga!
