The University of Miami’s Christian ministries are preparing a series of COVID-19-adapted Good Friday and Easter services for the campus community. Events include spiritual and secular celebrations, from the Stations of the Cross on the UC Patio on Good Friday to several Easter Sunday services and an Easter Egg hunt at the Wesley United Methodist Center.
“The three days from Thursday night to Sunday night are the climax of the Christian year,” said the Rev. Frank Corbishley, chaplain at St. Bede Episcopal Chapel. “I find it incredible that we have to do most of this virtually for the second year in a row. On the other hand, I am extremely grateful for the technology that allows us to do what we have been doing.”

YOUNGSTOWN Large garbage bags full of new toys came off of a semi tractor-trailer Wednesday at Gleaners Food Bank on Pyatt Street so that volunters could place them in the vehicles of families of 300 children.
In some cases, people came to pick up toys for three families, meaning they received three bags full. In several cases, the bags didn’t all fit very well into their car.
