‘Prince Humperdinck’ Crucifies Westley in Church’s ‘The Princess Bride’-Themed Easter Service
Church of the Rock in Winnipeg, led by pastor Mark Hughes, is known for its unique Easter sermons, interpreting the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord of Glory as Hollywood blockbusters, including Monty Python and the Holy Grail to Toy Story, Star Wars, Tombstone, Indiana Jones, Robin Hood, Back to the Future, and Pirates of the Caribbean.
We last covered them after they crucified Iron Man on stage, along with Buzz Lightyear, Wyatt Earp, Simba, Belle, and then most recently Batman.
Years ago, they put on a ‘The Princess Bride’-themed church service that saw Prince Humperdinck crucify Westley on stage, dying for “truuuuuuuuuuue looooooooove!’ before being ultimately being resurrected with the help of Miracle Max, Fezzik, and Inigo Montoya.
