Special Events
"We Watched Him Die" Performance

This powerful play depicts the strengths and weaknesses, the fears and hopes of those who witnessed the death of our Lord.  Held each year on Passion (Palm) Sunday and Good Friday, members of "Saint Patrick Players" and the "Saint Patrick Choir" portray Mary the mother of Jesus, Peter, Nicodemus, Mary of Magdala, and Judas to name a few.  You will never look at Good Friday and Easter the same.

Performance days of "WE WATCHED HIM DIE"
Only at SAINT PATRICK CHURCH
PASSION SUNDAY at 4:00 PM
GOOD FRIDAY at 7:00 PM

The Erie Saint Patrick's Day Parade

Featuring local bands and groups from throughout the greater Erie Community, the parade launches at 11th and State Streets and ends at Saint Patrick Church.
