SOUTHAVEN, Miss — Easter Sunday is usually a time for faith organizations to gather to honor the occasion. But how are places of worship gathering this weekend during a pandemic?
From the music to the preaching, this Easter will be in-person for those who registered at Brown Missionary Baptist Church in Southaven.
"We're just excited that this is an Easter where we can actually have people back in the church," said Pastor Bartholomew Orr. "Last Easter I was preaching all by myself in here."
