The 2017 Easter Sunday Sunrise Service was held on April 16, 2017 with sunrise due at 6:20 AM. The weather was exceptionally mild but it did not cooperate and let us see the sun until several hours later, but the morning was lit up with the seventeen (17) hearty souls who were motived to be up at that hour of the morning and attend.
Conducting the service was our own Rev. Lynn Watson. Half the congregation were members of St. Paul's United Church in Bancroft and the others from Carlow United Church. A lite breakfast of sweet and savory muffins, cheese, juice, coffee and tea was served after the outside portion of the service. The remainder of the service was carried out in-doors. |
