Lowman United Methodist Church recently issued the following announcement.
The Passion Play is the title of our Lenten study this year. Presented by Pastor Tony, it will be offered at 9:00 on Sunday mornings. The study will begin on Feb. 23 and end March 29. Books are $7 and are optional.
Jesus’ Passion story is presented each Lent in countless churches every year. But one play presented by the inhabitants of a village in Bavaria, Germany may be one of the longest-running performance of all. Staged every ten years since 1634, the play makes an impact not only on the villagers who portray the characters but on all who see it as well.
In The Passion Play, Rob Fuquay follows the biblical story of the Passion and shows how this amazing play has been used both as a ritual of praise and later as a weapon through its anti-Semitic past.
