FREMONT - For many churches in Sandusky County, this week s message of the resurrection of Jesus Christ may be the perfect message as the state tries to get out from under COVID-19.
Christians celebrate the day as the resurrection of Jesus Christ three days after he died on the cross.

Pastor Matt Wheeler said Easter Sunday will be similar to last year when the COVID-19 pandemic took away the church s opportunity to celebrate the event.
This year, while streaming on the church s Facebook Live feed, Wheeler said his message will mirror that of what families have been dealing with through the past year: Loss.
Mayor Danny Sanchez said residents would be asked to pay their water bills online, via phone or at the water office s drive through window.
Sanchez announced later in March the city decided to close all of its fishing access to the Sandusky River, a precaution linked to coronavirus fears.
The mayor said he would encourage businesses to prohibit parking to the public.
The announcement resulted in a big hit to the city s annual walleye run, which attracts thousands to the Sandusky River.
In 2018, Sandusky County s Convention and Visitors Bureau estimated walleye and white bass seasons (white bass starts later in April and runs through May) bring almost 14,000 fishermen to the Sandusky River.
