CROSSWALK

Join us this Good Friday, April 7th at 11:00 AM for an interactive, inspiring, and ecumenical experience as we carry a HUGE wooden Cross through the town of Thomasville from Memorial United Methodist Church to Brown-New Calvary Baptist Church.

It is a free event and should conclude by 12:00 noon
