PORTLAND, Oregon — Outside Vancouver Avenue First Baptist Church Friday night, it was clear how many people felt: never had a Good Friday felt so good.
“It's always a blessing to come to the house of the Lord,” said Gregory Stewart. “I didn't have to be here, but God blessed me.”
Fellow church member Catherine Brown agreed.
“It's a beautiful day, it's Good Friday, I feel liberated!” said Brown. “When you see other people that you've been separated from for about a year now, it's just rejoicing.”
