There’s just over a month left to book a screening of Mary’s Easter story, the award-winning Pierced and Perfected, with your group or congregation for 2024!
The elderly mother of Jesus has moved to Ephesus, and the young Luke visits her to collect her stories for what will become his record of Jesus’ life. As she retells her experiences of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection, audience members will journey through her grief, imagine the dynamics of her relationship with her son, and discover along with her the hope that compelled her through the rest of her life.
How would we use this screening?
Pierced and Perfected is a 40 minute short film adapted from a one-woman stage play. It ends with a clear segue into a communion meal. Recommended for ages middle school and up.
It’s perfect to use:
-in place of an Easter Sunday sermon
-as a Good Friday or Saturday evening event
-as a follow up to Easter weekend, shown leading up to Pentecost

Purchase of a screening also includes a slide deck of follow up discussion questions designed for small group interaction and/or individual reflection. If used for a large gathering, one or two could be selected to guide conversation amongst the crowd.
