Ministerial Association procession of the cross Friday
Bluffton Area Ministerial Association will hold its Good Friday procession of the cross on April 2.
"We will have the cross loaded in a truck with folks walking behind socially distanced and preferably wearing masks. Family units are fine together," said Rev. Jeremy Mann, pastor of Emmanuel United Church of Christ.
This year's route begins at 11:30 a.m. at St. John's United Church of Christ, corner of Jackson and College. The route follows:
• Begins at St. John's UCC
• English Lutheran
• Bluffton Presbyterian
• St. Mary's Catholic
• First Mennonite
• Concludes at First United Methodist
There will be no inside service. Instead the participants will be dismissing follwing the final prayer a First United Methodist.
