The Passion Experience
The Passion Experience
The Passion Experience is a self-guided, contemplative walkthrough reflection on Jesus' suffering and death in his journey to the cross. At a basic level, this event looks a lot like an art show with time to read, reflect, and respond at each ten stations, but it's so much more than that.
Attend this experience alone or with friends and family. It is free and requires no registration; simply walk through the experience at your own pace. This event is recommended for all adults and children in 4th grade and higher.*
Wednesday, April 16 (Family option) from 5-6pm*
Thursday, April 17 from 6-8pm
Friday, April 18 from 1-6pm
*If you have a child(ren) younger than 4th grade and are not able to attend this experience at another time that works without them, we encourage you to attend Wednesday, April 16 between 5-6pm. This session has been designated for families with young kids as a more noise-friendly space. Please bring things to occupy our children at a lobby sofa/coffee shop area while you spend time in the walkthrough. Other time options will be a more quiet, meditative experience.
