Vryheid Easter play demonstrates what it means to be forgiven
Through shifting the focus of the story to the characters Peter and Judas, the play set out to look deeper into the story of Jesus' crucifixion.
Congregants of the St Thomas More Catholic Church wowed their audience last week, in a modernised play about the celebration of the life of Jesus, and the Passover.
Based on John 3:16 in the bible, the play sought to look into the love that God has for His people and how he demonstrated this love by sending His only Son to die so that their sins could be forgiven.
