NARRATOR 1: Jesus took Peter, John and James and went up the mountain to pray. While he was praying, his face changed in appearance and his clothes became dazzling white.
NARRATOR 2: Suddenly two men were talking with him — Moses and Elijah. Appearing in glory, they spoke of his exodus which he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem.
NARRATOR 1: Peter and those with him had fallen into a deep sleep; but awakening, they saw his glory and the two men who were standing with him.
PETER: Master, how good it is for us to be here. Let us set up three booths, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
NARRATOR 2: Peter did not really know what he was saying. While he was speaking, a cloud came and overshadowed them. The disciples grew fearful as the others entered it. Then from the cloud came a voice.
VOICE: This is my Son, my chosen One. Listen to him.
NARRATOR 1: When the voice fell silent, Jesus was there alone. The disciples kept quiet and told no one anything of what they had seen.
