Springdale Presbyterian Church proudly presents "In the Image," a musical about the story of creation and what it means to be created in the image of God.
Through earnest exploration and a bit of humor, the children learn that being created in the image of God is not about physical appearance. It's about creativity, faithfulness, responsibility, community, and the ability to find the good in things. Over the course of one week we will prepare and perform "In the Image" composed by Mark Burrows. Each family registered will receive a script and a CD included in the registration cost for the show. If your child wants to audition for a solo or speaking part, the audition packet will posted soon. We hope your family will choose to participate in this production as we explore together what it means to be created in God's image. Click here to register. Important Dates July 1: Registration Deadline July 24: Volunteer Meeting - 2pm July 25-29: Camp/Show Week July 29: Performance at 7pm in the Springdale Sanctuary July 31: Leading Worship at Springdale 10am (optional) Eligibility This opportunity is designed for children who have finished the Kindergarden-8th grades.

Springdale's Statement of Inclusion
We believe that we’re called to the ministry of love and reconciliation in the world through our Lord Jesus Christ, and that includes everyone. We believe that the diversity of our world is a gift from God to be embraced. We celebrate our human family’s full diversity of race, ethnicity, refugee or immigrant status, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, spiritual or faith history, economic status, marital status, physical and mental ability, and education. We welcome all who have previously known the pain of exclusion, discrimination, abuse, or intolerance in either the church or society. We affirm that all people are created in the image of God, are loved by God, are called by God, and are deserving of love and human dignity. Because of that, we welcome all people into full participation in the life of the church.
