The Fellowship of Jackson County Clergy, a group of local ministers, will present the Good Friday program along with musical selections performed by Lutheran Men’s Chorus.

The Pines serves a buffet-style breakfast.

“This breakfast provides an opportunity for you to invite your pastor and church staff to attend as your guests to show your appreciation for their dedication and service throughout the year,” Seymour Mayor Craig Luedeman said. “In the past, we have been blessed with pastors and staff from many denominations from all over Jackson County. This year, we hope to have an even larger crowd.”
