| Stranger at the Table A Musical About Communion book and lyrics by Cynthia and Michael Marion music by Michael Marion What happens when you mix a complacent church lacking community, mission and ministry with a transient looking for his next meal? First there's resistance when he interrupts their predictable worship. Then there's a gradual awakening as they experience his infectious passion for the Christian faith. In a surprise ending echoing the Emmaus road story, the Stranger vanishes. The awestruck congregation realizes that have received a holy Visitor. Musical numbers include: It's Communion Again!
