I mentioned earlier in the week that all our time was consumed, currently, with 4 different church service "productions." Our first was last night, with a special Maundy Thursday service and drama with full orchestra. Tonight is the second, for Good Friday, that includes about 30-35 minutes of a musical we did last year, and the year before called "One Upon a Tree." The portion to be performed during the service tonight includes the most of the final portion of this passion drama, up to Jesus' crucifixion. Again, this will feature a full orchestra and choir, plus soloists. Pontius Pilate is one of the characters. The shot below was taken by my friend Larry at one of the previous years rehearsals.
Christ Memorial Lutheran Church

This is next to Ronnies Plaza and in the same building as "Incredible Pizza" (our tenents!). For South County residents, this is probably known as the old Target building. I'll be running sound for the orchestra and soloists. See you there.
Gregg FYI the time tonight is actually 7:30. Last night was 7. You didn't mention that Rachel has a small solo in tonight's performance.

I love Once Upon a Tree. I wish we could do it every year. I never get tired of this wonderful Drama!

I don't know, that picture is kind of scary. Those people look like they are about to crucify somebody.

You are also invited to join us on Easter Sunday at 8, 9:20 or 10:45 for the "Life Saving" conclusion to Holy Week. Don't leave this life without it!
