OUR STORY BEGINS ... in a local parish that has a chronic problem with a shrinking attendance. Mary, a self-conscious and shy, yet remarkably witty sister, is one of a modest skeleton crew. In addition to doing her chores, she spends a lot of time in her room watching her favorite reality tv show "Dancing With The Super Stars". This is done in secret on a tv she is forbidden to have. Once discovered, Sister Mary is forced by her superiors to go out among the people, and convince them to visit the parish. Reluctantly, she obeys. All the while, she imagines herself as a formidable contestant on her favorite reality tv show. A place she would much rather be.
.
However, once out into the world, Sister Mary suffers a traumatic ordeal that magically teleports her to biblical times. It's not long before Sister Mary stumbles upon a plot exacted by dark forces that would prevent Christianity from ever coming into existence. Although her jump on history provides a unique advantage, she must overcome the commonplace sexist attitudes that challenge her attempts to intervene. In addition, the disciple Judas (intimidated by her unorthodox ideas and gutsy attitude [for a woman]), is determined to derail her every effort.
Will Sister Mary's unprecedented 21st century way of thinking be enough to save Christianity?
