First Lutheran of Marshall five-part Lenten drama worship

The People vs Judas Iscariot is a five-part series for First Lutheran’s upcoming Lenten worships in March and April. These dramas will be the “sermon portion” of its traditional Holden Evening Prayer and take the shape of a court hearing in which Judas undergoes his punishment phase. Prosecution and defense attorneys attempt to sway the judge and you, the congregation with evidence based upon the Bible and tradition. Various witnesses are “subpoenaed” to testify, including Peter, John, Mary Magdalene, and others.

The schedule for this Lenten season (after Ash Wednesday) is: March 12, 19, 26, April 2, 9 at 6:15 p.m. A youth-sponsored dinner will be from 5-6:05 p.m.
