A Heart to Forgive

Plot Summary

Hated by his stepfather, eighteen year old Peter leaves home and takes refuge in the rescue mission where his father and mother had served at one time. The story follows Peter through both trials and triumphs until, at last, he is finally able to forgive. Set in Old Philadelphia in the late 1800s, "Seventy Times Seven" will bring your audience to laughter and tears. The play will show each one their own need to ask God's forgiveness for their own sin, and the necessity of forgiving others.
