Public invited to Perry Holy Week services

Each year in Perry, the Perry Ministerial Association hosts a series of Holy Week services the week prior to Easter. The brief services take place at Noon at various churches in Perry, and are followed by a luncheon.

The public is invited to each of these four brief services and the meals that follow.

This year’s Holy Week Services and meals are as follows:

Monday, April 11 at 12 p.m. at Crossroads United Methodist Church

Rev. Leland Collins from Northview United Methodist Church will speak.

Tuesday, April 12 at 12 p.m. at Perry Presbyterian Church

Pastor Jason Mangrum from King’s Cross Baptist Church will speak.

Wednesday, April 13 at 12 p.m. at Cross Point Church in Perry

Pastor Willie King from Faith Bible Fellowship in Perry will speak.

Thursday, April 14 at 12 p.m. at St. Patrick Catholic Church

Rev. Pat Jefferson from Oak Grove CME will speak.

A service does not take place on Good Friday.

A free-will offering is taken at each event. Proceeds are used to fund the Perry Ministerial Association’s work of providing lodging, gas and food for transients – individuals who are passing through our area and experience an emergency of some kind.

The Perry Ministerial Association has been providing this assistance for many years, with financial support provided through the Holy Week Service offerings. Individuals who would like to lend financial support to this effort may also send checks to the Perry Ministerial Association at PO Box 1426 in Perry, Georgia 31069.

This help is distributed by vouchers provided to the Perry Police Department for distribution to individuals in need.

The Perry Ministerial Association members are pastors of the various churches in Perry. This year’s President is Pastor Tom Carruth from Perry United Methodist Church.

We invite you to join us at Monday’s Holy Week service at 12 Noon at Crossroads United Methodist Church.
