ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A record number 3,344 guests enjoyed free admission to Orlando, Florida's Holy Land Experience September 3rd as the premier faith-and-family vacation destination opened its gates for a second time this year as a special gift of appreciation to the community and beyond.

Earlier this year, on January 28th, Holy Land Experience held its annual, announced Charity Day, treating over 3,000 guests to its exquisitely landscaped gardens, award-winning dramas, and unforgettable interactive Bible-based exhibits.

"Such an overwhelming number of individuals and families came to enjoy the park that day that we decided to plan another Holy Land Experience Charity Day," explained park manager Mike Everett. "And by the end of our second Charity Day on September 3rd we had set another incredible attendance record, with a total of 3,344 guests receiving complimentary admission to the park."

And what a day it was, as those thousands of guests were treated to all the sights, sounds, exhibits, and dramatic productions that have made Holy Land Experience a must-see attraction for individuals, families, and groups from around the world.

Despite the overflow crowd, there were few lines throughout the day as guests enjoyed the park's realistic recreations of biblical sites like Golgotha and Jesus' Garden Tomb; experienced the world renowned Scriptorium with its priceless biblical manuscripts; walked through the extensive antiquities collection of the late Dr. Paul F. Crouch, founder of the Trinity Broadcasting Network; and participated in a live re-enactment of the Sermon on the Mount and a Last Supper Communion with Jesus.

Mr. Everett noted that every performance of The Passion, The Four Women Who Loved Jesus, Forgiven, and the other popular productions in the park's 2,000-seat Church of All Nations auditorium were filled to capacity. "The excitement was electric," he said, "as audiences at each performance responded enthusiastically to these life-changing dramas and shows."

Similarly, Holy Land Experience's special Smile of a Child Adventure Land was packed throughout the day as kids enjoyed face painting, dressing up in Bible story costumes, their own special music and fun theater, and other exciting children's attractions.

"Most importantly," said Mr. Everett, "individuals and families were deeply impacted by the life-changing message at the core of every show, exhibit, and attraction."

As they left many of the guests expressed their appreciation for what they experienced throughout the special day.

"It was a dream come true to come to Holy Land Experience," said one local guest, "and you made it possible today. I enjoyed it so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

A pastor who brought an entire group said that "we do not take the free entry for granted.... Thank you for giving us this experience as a gift."

And a guest all the way from Virginia noted that "your people were caring, compassionate, professional, and accommodating. God is evident in everyone and everything."

Said Mr Everett: "These kinds of comments make the work we do at Holy Land Experience a blessing. Knowing that those who come here are not just entertained, but inspired and changed through the truths they experience keeps each of us motivated. Believe me, being at Holy Land Experience is as big a thrill for us as it is for our guests."
