Live Performance Canceled (view online on Maundy Thursday) LIVING LAST SUPPER

In 1998, thirteen men committed to putting on a drama at St. James UMC. That same drama has touched lives around our community for more than 20 years as they continue to portray Christ and his apostles. We pray you are as blessed by attending as we are performing this worship drama. Guests have attended from many denominations, age groups and spiritual experiences. All are welcome to join us! "It has been a blessing to play Simon Peter over the years. I can relate to Peter because he was very much human in his relationship with Christ-he denied Him, but was one of His closest disciples. " Eddie Sides, member of St. James Living Last Supper cast.

"The Living Last Supper is an incredible opportunity to see the words of the Last Supper come to life! You will be able to see this integral part of Jesus' life in real life and will be able to place yourself into this sacred story that we read in the scripture." Jack Payne
