Tumuaki! Matthew Cowley of the Pacific • A One-man Play

Tumuaki! Matthew Cowley of the Pacific • A One-man Play

by James Arrington

This play is largely a first-hand gathered account of the experiences and life observations of the works, trials, and triumphs of Matthew Cowley.  Brother Cowley spent much of his life serving in the South Pacific as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints. These experiences cross the borders of humor, sorrow, illness and observed miracles. Elder Cowley was one of the Church’s greatest missionaries. After having served the people of the Pacific Islands for 25 years, he was called to The Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

Can be adapted into a reader’s theatre format using additional performers for the varying ages of Matthew.
