Churches welcome visitors on Bloody Sunday anniversary

Attendees at BlueJean Church on March 5 during the Jubilee.

Sunday, March 5 Selma was filling up by 7 a.m. with Jubilee attendees from across the country.

Church congregations throughout our community shared messages of love, hope and perseverance in unity as they filled with visitors in town for the 58th annual Bridge Crossing Jubilee that is held the first weekend of March every year.

Many churches also received a very special gift by way of visitors full of excitement and love being projected through their beautiful smiles.

Men, women and children from all across the country visited churches Sunday morning to join in praise and worship while in town celebrating Jubilee.

A group from Birmingham visiting BlueJean Church had this to say, "You can't visit Selma without feeling hope through love."
