We are a community of people from various places, walks of life, and expressions of Christian faith who gather under the auspices of Saint Luke Parish to reenact the Passion, Death and Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ through the “Passion Play."


We seek to offer a true and heart-filled prayer to God in thanks for the offering of His Son, as well as the blessing of community through the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

The Passion Play is a two-hour performance featuring music, lighting and special effects. The cast is made up of volunteers passionate about portraying the story of Jesus in a unique way. The performance depicts the life, teachings, and miracles of our Lord including His scourging and crucifixion.

Many children have attended the Passion Play over the years. However, parents should consider the maturity of their child before taking them to the performance. Certain scenes, such as the scourging and crucifixion, may be frightening for some children.

The passion play is a ministry of St. Luke Parish solely funded by donations. Please consider making a gift when you place your order. All donations will go toward lighting, sound equipment, sets and marketing to enhance the production quality.

Doors open 30 minutes prior to the performance. Seating is first come, first served and cannot be reserved, except for members of the clergy. The seating is either bleacher-style or metal folding chairs. You are welcome to bring a chair cushion. The show lasts about 2 hours. We end the show with a brief prayer together.

Once you place your order, a ticket will be emailed to you. If you have any questions, please feel free to call us at (908) 902-8404.
