Each year, the Bluffton Area Ministerial Association plans an ecumenical Good Friday service.
"We begin by carrying a cross to local Bluffton Area Ministerial Association churches, pausing to pray at each church entrance," said Louise Wideman.
This year the processional will begin at the English Lutheran Church at 11:30 a.m. From there, the cross will be carried to St. John's United Church of Christ, then to St. Mary's Catholic Church, to the Bluffton Presbyterian Church, Bluffton First United Methodist Church and finally to First Mennonite Church.
The cross will be carried into the sanctuary at First Mennonite, where we will gather at noon for a service of worship. An offering will be received for the Bluffton Food Pantry. All are welcome to participate.
