“This is something new we’ve never tried before,” said Pastor Jonathan Herron of Life Church.
Like last year, Life Church of Saginaw and Midland made their Easter Sunday Mass a drive-thru celebration.
“We were in the heat of the pandemic, everyone was freaking out,” Herron said.
Thanks to the vaccine and reduced guidelines, life is a little more lax than last year and Life Church could celebrate Easter Mass in person and online too.
“People were able to spread out, see each other masked,” Herron said.
This year they were also able to bring back their annual Easter Egg Hunt.

‘Expect to feel church again.’ Michigan churches reopen doors for Easter Sunday
Updated 9:28 AM;
SAGINAW, MI For two decades, the Rev. Hurley J. Coleman Jr. has ministered to the congregation of Saginaw’s World Outreach Campus Church.
And for the past year, like many other faith leaders, he has done so virtually as members of his nondenominational Christian church have worshipped together from afar via Facebook, YouTube and other platforms.
But on April 4, Easter Sunday, he’ll welcome some of them back in person for the first time.
Some things will be different. There will be more empty seats, people will wear face masks, and the service will be shorter than usual. But other things perhaps the things that matter the most will be very much the same.
