Synopsis

Haven't you wondered what happened to the women who were with Jesus and the Twelve Disciples right before and right after the Last Supper? Wasn't the meal a family Passover Seder that included women and children? Sure it was, shares author Millie Nelson Samuelson in these inspiring memoir-like stories of the men, women and children of the Last Supper. Cover art by Jan VonBokel affirms this view of the Last Supper. The three previous editions are now out of print. What's new in this fourth edition (2012)? Prayer meditations for each chapter by Rev. Terry Rhine, the children's stories, study questions for small groups, and dramatization suggestions based on a decade of performing these vignettes in Millie's church, plus performance photos.

About this title

About the Author

Growing up in China during the devastating wars of the twentieth century, Millie personally saw how the Christian faith gave dignity and freedom to Chinese girls and women. Not only were their feet unbound, but their minds and hearts as well. Because of her experiences, she became an advocate for women's rights. After years researching the lives of the women who followed Jesus, Millie wrote these dramatic stories to illuminate the important roles that women disciples, and even children, had in the life and ministry of Jesus alongside his men disciples. Millie has also written historical novels inspired by her family's century of experiences in China and Taiwan, Hungry River and Jade Cross.
