UNDER THE DIRECTION of Patrick Perkins, choir director at Yazoo City’s First Presbyterian Church, the church’s choir sang during Sunday evening’s Community Easter Worship Service.

Using Acts 3:1-10 as the Scripture reference, the Rev. Caleb Clark, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church said there are needs in our community. As Christians, we must respond.
“There are people ... that have needs, and the way we respond is our privilege and our opportunity,” Clark said.
“One of the great privileges that the Yazoo City church at large has is to minister to the needs of people.”
Clark delivered the Easter message at Sunday’s Community Easter Worship Service, which was hosted by Trinity Episcopal Church.
Clark said Christians’ voice of praise to God is often “stillborn.”
“(The lame man in the Scripture passage) was filled so that other’s may see the power of the cross of Christ in his life,” Clark said.

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
