Each Lenten season, St. Aidan Parish performs the musical Passion Play, Make Us Believers. The play is written by Bob Summers, a former youth minister and parishioner at St. Alphonsus. As many as 80-90 students and adults from as many as 14 different churches come to participate in the play and help with production each year.
Make Us Believers moves us from Jesus’ grand entry on Palm Sunday to the events of Holy Thursday through Easter Sunday. By utilizing a biblical timeline, the traditional Stations of the Cross, and 22 original songs, Mr. Summer’s helps us examine the Passion in both a creative and spiritual realm.
