mesa easter pageant

The Mesa Easter Pageant is truly amazing!! I feel so blessed to be able to take my children to this amazing Pageant. It is the story of Christ's life from birth to resurrection. They showed the miracles He performed and the lives He blessed. He has blessed my life so abundently and I'm am forever grateful. The spirit truly testified of Christ that night and we all were blessed to feel it. This is our sweet friend and Eliza's preschool, Mrs Kerri. She is so wonderful!! When we walked away from talking to her, Emma Grace{who also went to her for preschool} said, "Mrs. Kerri is always smiling! I like to smile back at her." Kerri and her whole family was able to participate in this years pageant. It is quite a time commitment. For a month there are practices until 10pm at night. All of the rehearsing pays off! They are able to be taught by the spirit and put on an amazing show.
Here is a picture with one of the Centurion's to show you how amazing some of the costumes were.
To get a seat at the pageant you have to show up at least an hour and a half to two hours before the show to save seats. Everyone brings dinner to eat while they wait. Then everyone{at least it seemed like everyone} goes across the street to Dairy Queen for a treat.

While waiting we also went into the visitors center and went through the Reflections of Christ exhibit{see other post}. The spirit is so beautiful and you feel it so strong as soon as you walk into the room.
