Make Your Easter More Meaningful with a Deeper Connection to Jesus Christ
Join us as we reflect on Christ’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem with Vanessa Benavente and Giavani Cairo from The Chosen and journey toward Easter morning—celebrating Jesus Christ’s victory over death.
Vanessa Benavente
‘Mary’ Mother of Jesus
Giavani Cairo
‘Thaddeus’
Jesus’ disciple
Inspiring Music
The celebration will feature various musical numbers including a children’s choir, orchestra, and chamber choir for an inspiring worship experience.
“This show has been a real eye opener to how I carry my spirituality. I feel it hasn’t only just gotten me a little bit more in touch with the message of Jesus. And I love that this show really focuses on the part of the message that includes everyone. He called everyone from all walks of life and tried to have them work together.”
–Vanessa Benavente
“I was raised Christian, but never felt a strong connection to my faith. In addition to my acting training, I started praying every day while reading the Bible. Being a part of ‘The Chosen,’ and the Savior’s teaching to ‘love one another as I have loved you,’ has helped me want to be a better, kinder person. Playing Thaddeus has transformed me and inspired me to ‘be a better person.”
–Giovani Cairo
