Many Christians who perhaps haven’t been to church often this year will don their Easter Sunday best and flock to their parishes today. Local ministers said while they wish their congregation would attend services weekly, they are thrilled to see a full church on Easter Sunday. “It’s a running joke that sometimes we only see people twice a year,” said the Rev. Stuart Higginbotham with Grace Episcopal Church.
