You may now know the story of Aimee Semple McPherson – but that is all the more reason to come to this absolutely unique, fascinating multimedia presentation. Sister Aimee turned her good looks, spectacular voice, and undeniable charisma into a career as the first radio evangelist in America. She was the founder of a mega-church and enormously important to the world of evangelical Christianity. She was a superstar and widely admired. But when she was kidnapped and turned up later in the desert under mysterious circumstances, the mystery and the legend were just beginning!
Was Sister Aimee actually abducted? Or were the rumors true: that she ran off with a married lover? Some said it was just a publicity stunt gone wrong. Or a cover for nervous breakdown.
How did this beautiful woman with an alluring smile, glorious voice and clever mind use the medium of radio to spread her message – and was her message truly intended to serve the Church or truly intended to serve herself? Don’t miss this fascinating session!
