The children of First Presbyterian and members of the Girl Scout Troop 182, accompanied by the Rev. Grant Gillard and several adults, spent part of Good Friday on a bunny delivering mission.
The bunnies had been collected over a few weeks time at Sunday worship services, and as bunnies do, well, they multiplied. A total of 65 bunnies were collected.
On Saturday there was a rehearsal for the performances that would take place before the Easter worship service and also a traditional Easter egg hunt.
On Sunday, First Presbyterian's agenda began with Easter sunrise service at Bent Creek, followed by a pancake breakfast in the church's fellowship hall, a performance by the youth at 9 a.m. and then the Easter worship service at 10.
