Blast from the Past - Lancaster First UMC (The Last Supper Drama)


Many of you may remember when our church participated in a Last Supper drama based on the famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci several years ago when Rev. Jerry Dickey was the Associate Pastor. We will be offering something very similar this year for our Holy Week services on Thursday, April 17 and Friday, April 18 at 7:30 pm in our church sanctuary. I imagine that this year's drama will look very similar to what we see in the picture.

When I was visiting one of our shut-in members yesterday, I noticed this framed picture on the wall and I took a picture of it. Here are the names of the people who portrayed the disciples:

Far Left - Jim Hachtel
2nd from Left - Gary Lockwood
3rd from Left - Ray Finley
4th from Left - Steve Williams
5th from Left - Dave Harcum
6th from Left - Greg Nicholson
Middle (Jesus) - David Lifer
Far Right - Rev. Simeon Brandyberry
2nd from Right - Don Moore
3rd from Right - Rev. Jerry Dickey
4th from Right - Jack Boerstler
5th from Right - Howard Konwinski
6th from Right - David Cutright

Would ( could ) someone tell me if this is " the " Jerry Dickey that would have been a church camp counselor at Sabina, Ohio, in the late 1950's - early 1960's ?

Not sure, but it very well might be the same person.
