Dwell Family Event - King of Kings Easter Drama

Dwell Family Event - King of Kings Easter Drama

Join us on March 29 @ 3PM. This is more than a performance, it’s an invitation into the story of Jesus:

His love that changes everything.
His death that carries our sin.
His resurrection that rewrites eternity.

There will be special children’s boxes at the door to make the story come alive for our littlest guests, free childcare for each performance, and a prelude before every show to help set the tone for the experience ahead. Prelude starts at 2:15, production starts at 3pm. Seating will open up 30 minutes prior to the show. We have 30 tickets available - kids in childcare will not need a ticket. It will be first come first serve. RSVP and please let us know if you will have any kids in childcare so they have appropriate staffing.

Be one of the tens of thousands who have encountered the Gospel.
