1970 AACS Conference
“Credimus“
Perspective Report
Ben Vandezande leads 15 students the performance of a Credimus at conference
Mr. Ben Vandezande, teacher at the St. Catharines Christian High School, led 15 students Sunday night, August 2, in a “Credimus” (a public, communal dramaturgical confession of the central motives of God’s Word) along with nearly 400 participants. Tracing the great biblical themes of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Communion in the Holy Spirit, the Credimus players staged an impressive light and darkness drama with stark, candle-lit readings from the history of revelation. The performance, which was designed to dramatize the work of the Christian youth magazine, included Mike Van Hartingsveld as Adam, Elsie Lammers as Eve, Frank Lesage as Satan, Ann Kamminga and Dell Lammers as guitarists, Mr. De Weerd as drummer. Candle light speakers were Carol Sluis, Rick Jongejan, Cal Jongsma, Henry Westendorp, Jack Van Dyke, Jasper Lesage and Sid Hielema; Bob Koole was helped with lighting effects by Eve Koole. Credo subscriptions can be purchased at P. O. Box 272, North Surrey, British Columbia, Canada.
