PARAPHRASE THEATRE and JONATHAN SWENSON’S touring and speaker schedule:
2023
The “More to this Life Marriage Retreat”, Feb. 10-12, at Okoboji Lutheran Bible Camp, Okoboji, IA. Bring your spouse and come join my wife, Jana and me for this inspiring weekend filled with laughter, learning and great fun and fellowship. https://www.okoboji.org/marriage-retreat
The Pain Management 2023 CNE Nurses Conference, Mayo Clinic, April 25-26.
Jana and I will be sharing our “Survivor Story” presentation, sharing insights from our journey with her two-round of Breast Cancer and providing training in recognizing the 7 Human Needs and how to apply this knowledge as caregivers – both personally and professionally, while caring for others. As part of this conference, I will also perform “Visiting Hours” – the one-actor, multiple character drama (written by Curt Cloninger) that that affirms, trains and encourages professional Health-Care workers.

I look forward to speaking with you! + Jonathan

Sat, Dec 24- “Celebrate the Child”. Crossroads Church, Dawson MN
This is not a live event, but I love what this church is doing — creatively tapping into the options in working with Paraphrase Theatre. Crossroads will use video segments from “Celebrate the Child” as part of the special off-sight Christmas Eve service. Sounds like creative, innovative and effective outreach for their community!
