POMEROY The legacy of Pastor James Acree lives on move than a year after his passing, with the return of the Noah and the Ark live drama the next three weeks at Hillside Baptist Church on State Route 143.
Pastor Acree, who passed away in June 2020, founded the church in the late 1980s and in 1998 began the outdoor drama at the ark behind the church. The original ark was torn down in the mid 2000s, with the current ark having opened in 2008. Each year, the church presents the live outdoor drama “Noah and the Ark” free to the public, with the church and Power in the Blood Ministry working together to put on the performances.
