In this year’s Easter celebration, you will get a glimpse into the life of a Jewish family, the House of Ephraim, a family who faces the same types of triumphs and challenges that many of us face today. With beautiful music, sets, costumes and live animals, you will experience what it may have been like to live, work or raise a family in the days when Jesus walked the earth. Watch how this family’s story unfolds, and how a powerful expression of love changes their lives forever. The production is scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Christian Life Assembly in Camp Hill.
