St. Genesius Thespians
Proclaiming the Word of God
Through the Theatre Arts.
Saint Genesius, was an actor during the time of the Emperor Diocletian.
He was martyred after he declared his Christian beliefs while on stage performing for a Pagan audience.
I came here today to please an earthly Emperor but what I have done is to please a heavenly King. I came here to give you laughter, but what I have done is to give joy to God and his angels. From this moment on, believe me, I will never mock these great mysteries again. I now know that the Lord Jesus Christ is the true God, the Light, the Truth and the Mercy of all who have received his gift of baptism. O great Emperor, believe in these mysteries! I will teach you, and you will know the Lord Jesus Christ is the true God.” |
