Methodist Church Invites Public To 'Living Last Supper'

The Neligh United Methodist Church will perform the "Living Last Supper" on Thursday night.

The community is invited to attend this free event at the Neligh American Legion at 7 p.m. on Thursday, March 24. 

Methodist Pastor Bruce Phillips wrote the script, which was performed for the first time last year. While several churches across Northeast Nebraska perform a similar story, the one performed Thursday at the Neligh American Legion was a story Phillips said he felt called to write. 

"Several years ago, God put it on my heart that I needed to write something like this," he said. "So I did a tremendous amount of research both from the Bible and the commentaries and figured out just what to write and what God laid out on my heart. It turned out to be real moving."
