High Bridge Presbyterian Church celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Sunday including several families visiting from out of town. During the service, the Rev. Steve Willis baptized Margaret Harriet Thomas, infant daughter of Andrew and Daisy Thomas and granddaughter of Tim Wilhelm and Charlene Worley. The congregation also enjoyed special music from the choir and several Easter lilies were donated in memory of family members.
