ELKHART CHRISTIAN CHURCH
113 S. Gillett St., Elkhart
Good Friday, March 25 -
The Elkhart Christian Church will be
presenting “The Living Last Supper”, a
live recreation of Leonardo Di Vinci’s
Last Supper portrait, on Good Friday
evening, March 25th, 2016 at 6pm.
The presentation includes a full menu
dinner and dessert, music and drama
presentations, and the live re-enactment
of the famous Di Vinci portrait. As the
portrait is being staged, each character
shares the story behind how he met Jesus
and became one of His closest
companions, and offers insight into the
personal struggle in his heart and mind
after Jesus accusation that one of the
12 apostles would betray him, and serve
Him up to be crucified. This promises to
be a very moving and inspirational
experience for anyone who sees it.
Everyone is invited to come and share in
this enjoyable evening with us.
The entire evening’s activities are FREE
to all, but since space is limited,
reservations are requested by March
23rd. This can be done by phone at (217)
947–2726; by emailing office@elkhartcc.org;

Grade School). Child care will be

prepare to go to the cross. It is a very

traditional Jewish Seder meal for the
whole family. We will begin the music
