Established in 1918, The St. John Passion Play is the oldest passion play in the United States. The cast and crew is entirely volunteer. Our MISSION is to enact the Gospel drama of the Passion of our Lord to the best of our abilities with strict adherence to the Scriptural and historical accounts of the events leading up to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Our desire is to bring the Scriptures alive in a dramatic and moving way, to realize the message John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son so that whosoever believeth in him may not perish, but may have life everlasting.".) We continue present this play as a prayer for safety and health of our military service men and women.
