Four days to go ...

Please give thanks:
- for God’s amazing love expressed for us in the Passion and Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and the opportunity to tell it together in our town.
- for warmth, fellowship and enjoyment in rehearsal
- for sending us a stage manager- for enthusiastic responses to the school workshops
- for a Palm Sunday instrumentalist  in the precinct

Please pray:  
- that all the detailed planning is honouring to our Lord Jesus Christ and inspired by the Holy Spirit.
- that the Passion Play will have a spiritual impact on our town.
- that it will draw Christians together in love and witness.
- that we’ll all be awake to openings to share the Lord Jesus as we chat about what we are doing.

Specifically:
- for publicity and promotion – that leaflets, articles, the town banner and Tourist information display  will be effective and crowds of people will come
- for the coming together and smooth running of all elements of the production.
- for final rehearsals – that everyone in cast and production team will become one body, supporting one another. For those joining the team now may feel quickly welcomed in.
- for remembering of lines      
- for final details of costume making
- for stage manager and crew
- for set builders, lighting and sound technicians
- for marshalling and safety matters
- for arrangements with the donkeys
- for final details of music and musicians
- for appropriate weather
- for good health and energy for everyone involved
- for the families and friends of those taking part

and that the Christian community across the town will have a growing sense of anticipation and excitement to use this opportunity for ongoing witness to our living Lord Jesus Christ.

We look forward to seeing you on Palm Sunday!
