Once again we have been asked to endure some unusual weather. While it hasn't gone directly from summer to winter, don't tell that to our Passion Play family. Looking at the way people have been dressing for the past three days you would think it is the dead of winter. I have even been forced into long pants the past three days and long sleeves and sweat pants under my Moses costume today.
Our visitors today were bedecked in all kinds of hoodies, rain gear, umbrellas and maybe even long-johns. But in spite of it all, there was a festive mood and larger than expected crowds for the Play and Holy Land. Certainly not record breaking numbers, but far more than we would have anticipated for such rainy and cool conditions. Even the cast last night for the Play was ready to go when the shofar sounded, the sheep ran down the Via and the overture music began. Hopefully, tonight we will give the audience what they came for, an enthusiastic performance and a story which moves them as much as it moves us each night. With only eight performance days remaining, we need to finish strong, set the stage for next year and, always........give all the glory, praise and honor to God. What a blessing to be able to serve Him as we do.
