Touched by the Christ - an Easter Cantata

Published:

First Church of the Resurrection, 901 E Tuscarawas St in Canton, is proud to present our Easter Cantata - Touched by the Christ.

This compelling reflection upon Jesus' final days is viewed through His eyes and the eyes of those surrounding Him: Mary, sister of Martha; an officer to Caiaphas; Judas; Peter; Jesus Himself; Pilate; Mary, the mother of Jesus; Mary Magdalene; and Thomas. A sequence of dramatic, scripture-based monologues tells the story, alternating with Lloyd Larson's masterfully inspired music as the "voice of the believer" responds. It is our hope that this work will prompt your own reflections upon the great wonder and mystery of the Incarnate God Who, for the love of His people, humbled Himself, dying for our salvation and triumphing over death.

The performance is on Saturday, April 3 at 6:00 PM. Admission for the event is one non-perishable food item for the church's food ministry. For more information contact the church office at (330) 453-1719 or email bodkinmusic@yahoo.com
