Interactive Easter story set April 10

Long Neck Methodist Church will give a live presentation of the Easter story beginning at 6:30 p.m., Sunday, April 10, presented in six scenes. Attendees will walk from Palm and Passion Sundays, through Holy Week, to the arrest, crucifixion and murder of Christ, all leading to his Resurrection on Easter Sunday morning. Those who attend will be part of the Last Supper and spend time with Jesus in the garden. They will see the battles in the temple, the crown of thorns, the whip, the scourge and the cross, to the tomb and then to the continuation of the story. Live presenters from the congregation of Long Neck Methodist Church will interact with the audience as they work to bring this amazing story to life.
