It has been 500 years since the Reformation. To celebrate the Great Reformer, Martin Luther, and his posting of the “Ninty-Five Theses” in Wittenberg on October 31, 1517, St. John’s Lutheran Church in Marysville will be hosting a Reformation Renaissance Faire in Pastime Park on Saturdays and Sundays from September 23 to October 8 from 10 am to 6 pm each day.

Martin Luther changed history and the religious thinking of his time by promoting the idea that God’s mercy and grace through Jesus is freely given to everyone. Five hundred years later and Martin Luther’s beliefs are still as life-changing as they were in 1517.

The Reformation Renaissance Faire will feature many performers and artists who will make you feel as if you have stepped into life in 1517. A full list of performers can be found HERE.

Additionally, get a taste of dining in 1517 by purchasing tickets for The Madrigal Dinner on Saturday, September 23 at 6:30 pm. You can see a description of the full menu and purchase tickets to this once in a lifetime event by going HERE. Unfortunately, tickets for the dinner are no longer being sold.
