Journey to the Cross Brought the Bible to Life on Easter

Last Sabbath, the Campion Campus hosted Journey to the Cross, a live reenactment of the story of Jesus' death and resurrection, including an interactive old Jerusalem marketplace. The show was performed every hour for six hours on Sabbath afternoon, and each performance was highly attended by both church and community members.

Erin Johnson, assistant girls' dean, was the director and many Campion students took on roles as Roman soldiers, angels, and the other thieves on the crosses. "It was a long and busy day, but it was so worth it," Johnson commented. "I had an amazing cast and crew who gave me goosebumps during each performance."  
 
Junior student, Nathan Bergman took on the role of Jesus.  "Even though it was just acting, it was still physically difficult staying on the cross, and it gave me a better understanding of what Jesus went through," he reflected. "I can't even imagine what He went through, and acting it out opened my eyes a bit more to what He did for us."
