MESSAGES RECEIVED PRIOR TO EVENT  

We send you, and all those involved, our prayers and best wishes and hope that the events of Good Friday acted out in the City will stir the hearts and minds of all those who watch it.             Ann  (Markfield)
Our congratulations and thanks to all the people who are working to make Christ in the Centre an even more significant act of witness this year. We have changed the traditional pattern of our Good Friday services this year so that our congregation will be able to attend the events in the city centre.  It is of tremendous credit to the leaders and members of our multi-faith city that outward public witness of faith is increasingly seen and accepted. We will be proud to be part of a public witness to our Christian faith that also offers itself to those of other faiths.      Yvette (Oadby)                Alan    (Stoneygate)  

MESSAGES RECEIVED AFTER THE EVENT  

I just wanted to write and thank you for all the hard work that you and your colleagues have put into The Passion. Unfortunately, I was out of Leicester, speaking at another conference and was unable to be part of the throng this year!           This is a positive and imaginative witness to the people of Leicester. Your efforts are really appreciated. I am already looking forward to next year!     Rodney Green. (Chief Exec, Leicester City Council)
With all good wishes and congratulations to all involved in the 'Christ in the Centre' - superb                PKR
Please convey my HUGE thanks, appreciation and admiration to everyone involved in 'Christ in the Centre' - it was magnificent; I can't stop thinking about it! My teenage children were equally impressed - quite an achievement!  I look forward to taking part again next year.                         Mrs M (Rothley)  
My wife and I attended the event today for the first time and we both thought it was very meaningful in our journey of faith, so therefore we felt we would like to give something to the cost of organising such an event                 P & M (Oadby)  
 I am writing to thank you for the valuable witness in Leicester at Easter time. Pam (Braunstone)  
A wonderful re-enactment. I hope funds permit this to be an annual event                 JM
A very impressive and meaningful event        Miss G  
Just a small note to say how much I enjoyed 'Christ in the Centre'.  I thought the actors, costumes and props were so professional and what a lovely ending when Jesus walked through the crowds. I do hope this continues for many years in our City Centre.    Mrs T  
Thank you for the inspiring and moving dramatisation of 'the Passion' on Good Friday.  The whole event was a great encouragement to Christians and I'm convinced will have spoken to passers by, the words of Jesus being carried out into the surrounding streets.  The images on the large TV screen also I'm sure, had a big impact on people.  Please keep going!                 Trish  
With thanks to all involved for a fine piece of Christian witness           Mr E  
It was fantastic to see something like this in our city centre celebrating the Easter story.  My congratulations to all involved in such a moving portrayal, well enacted without being unnecessarily brutal.  It certainly provided huge discussion with my friends from church.  am also pleased to see how much coverage the project received in the local press.    Sarah  
A brilliant and thought-provoking production.  We were all spellbound.  Long may it continue – our thanks to all involved             Keith ( Stoughton )
I only saw the events in Town Hall Square and Humberstone Gate and found the latter particularly moving.  The choice of words and songs as part of the act of worship there was also particularly apt in my opinion.             Andrew  (Loughborough)
What a magnificent performance!!  Many congratulations to all who took part and the many people who worked ‘behind the scenes’ – superb!  
Susan ( Leicester Forest East)
Please congratulate all concerned in the wonderful Good Friday production.  Could this become Leicestershire’s Oberammergau ??  With all the publicity given we should have even bigger crowds next year!!             Jim and Margaret (Oadby)
