Monday, February 18 and Tuesday, February 19 - 7:00pm

A poignant comedy in two acts, six women of the Ivy Gap First Baptist Church gather during the waning days of WWII to prepare surgical bandages for the Red Cross. While performing their duties, they share secrets, aspirations and dreams as they plan the church's 75th anniversary. Twenty-five years later, it's the Viet Nam War and the church's centennial as the "First Baptist 6" reunite to discover that the love they share can overcome the most difficult problems.
