Celesta Puterbaugh played the prelude and postlude. The Rev. Jim Bales, church pastor, gave the welcome. The congregation sang “Amazing Grace.” Special music was provided by Kathy Morman and Lisa Kellum, singing “Hallelujah.”

The Rev. John Gaskin, pastor of First Baptist Church, gave the message. “Where You There?”

“You were there because your sins were on the cross. It was God’s plan to deliver us from sin. He was praying for each of us in the garden. We all must be one. We may have different practices. We may have different songs, but we are united as one. Are you ready to stand up for Jesus? This battle is real. Jesus is the answer. Jesus is the cure,” was the basis of his message.

Luci Woodard gave the benediction.

A luncheon followed in the church fellowship hall.
