Easter is coming – March 31!

by | Mar 1, 2024

Here is a picture of an  Easter service at our church in the mid-1940’s.  The Pastor was the Rev. John C. Wiley.  Look closely for some interesting details –  the organ screen (instead of the revealed pipes,)  U.S. and church flags on display, the Hymn board displaying hymns for the day, and the hats – lots of ladies hats!   You may also notice that the first few pews are filled with men only.  According to notes on the photograph, the special guests that morning were the Knights Templar. (Now a modern day service organization but since the 1100’s they were a Catholic military organization, best known for their role in the Crusades.)
