Community marches for Jesus

The community gathered at Tommy Perkins Park on Oct. 1 to kick off this year’s March for Jesus, an annual event and parade created by Verma Fobbs. The goal of the annual event is to openly show support for Jesus Christ. The event included a parade, food, music, gifts and a gospel message. After community members marched down Main Street, they met up a First Baptist Church of Olney to fellowship and worship God. A light lunch was served as attendees chatted and sang worship songs. Verma Fobbs gave a passionate testimony that greatly moved the crowd.
