Thank you for your request of materials.

For those of you who wish to use the Passion Drama as a means of ministering to your community we offer a Production Guide/Kit for you to ORDER.

The kit consists of a 35 page Production Guide and a 34 minute instructional video. These will be very helpful in getting you started on your own production. We suggest that you first view the video tape. It will direct you through costuming, the actual drama, scene set up, and slide presentation used two weeks after the drama during worship service as a fellowship follow-up.

The Production Guide gives you a detailed look at the scenes, set up, timeline, sample letters, news releases, bulletin inserts, props and overview of the entire drama. Also enclosed are samples of viewers responses to the drama.

Our purpose is to SHARE JESUS CHRIST WITH OUR COMMUNITY! Please send us your feedback, suggestions and ideas. Our intention is to act as a clearing house for ideas and then distribute those ideas to others that have requested the media kit.

In 1999, our church included Roman columns, two Roman soldiers on horseback, a leather chariot, and used army tank camoflauge for backdrops. In the year 2000 we placed the "tomb" at a busy intersection. The tomb is guarded 24 hours a day starting Good Friday by several Roman soldiers until the a.m. hours of Easter Sunday. In 2001 a 50' x 12' backdrop was constructed for the crucifixion scene. In 2002 we purchased 12 - 30 watt audio systems to provide improved and consistent audio to our viewers. We also added a 24' x 12' painted backdrop for the nailing scene. In 2003 we added a new
scene, the birth of Jesus, a manger with Mary and Joseph, shepherds and
sheep as an introduction to what you are about to see.

We want to hear from you as to whether or not this website promoting the Passion Drama has been beneficial to you. Please contact us and let us know.

May God bless your work and your congregation!
