With Easter Sunday coming up next week, a collection of local churches each will host a mid-day Holy Week Worship event they hope brings people together throughout the community and across denominational lines. This is the fourth year the Statesboro Ministerial Association has coordinated the Holy Week services and is the same group of pastors who organize the community-wide Thanksgiving services each year. Pastor Bill Bagwell, one of the organizers, said, “These services are a celebration of Easter and an opportunity to explore the passion of Jesus Christ as he approached the cross.
