ChristianSpotlight: This story begins with Father Jonathan Keene, a Robert Redford-looking church killer, who arrives in Cape Cod to end the life of a local congregation that the Catholic authorities deem no longer profitable. He is a conflicted person who must come to terms with his life’s calling and simultaneously execute the immediate task at hand. Upon arrival, he encounters various townspeople until he catches up to the parish priest, Father Simeon Joyce (Sean Patrick Brennan) who he convinces to stage a living Nativity with the clinging church members on Christmas Eve. This was to be the congregation’s last chance at drawing public attention with the hope of saving the declining church, before Fr. Keene officially pulled the plug.
