Close to 500 people attended the Easter Sunrise Service at Pretty Place Chapel on Sunday, April 12. According to YMCA Camp Greenville's Executive Director Doug Gregory, this was the largest group of people to attend the service in the past 3 or 4 years! After the service, about 300 of the attendees stayed for breakfast in Camp Greenville's Dining Hall.
The weather was cold and windy (typical for a very early morning in April) on the mountaintop; however that did not deter people from driving up the mountain to attend this beautiful service. Approximately 30 people were already at Camp on Saturday night (Easter Family Camp). Everyone took the shuttle from Camp to Pretty Place to attend the service.
It was an awesome service with an awesome view!

Easter Sunrise Service Open to the Public
You don't have to be attending Easter Family Camp to attend the Easter Sunrise Service at Pretty Place on Easter Sunday, April 12. All are welcome!
Rocky Hill Baptist Church will be conducting the service at the chapel which will start approximately 45 minutes before sunrise. The approximate sunrise for April 12 is 6:55 am, so the service should start around 6:10 am.
It's best to arrive about an hour before the service to allow time for parking and catching the shuttle to the chapel.
If you are not part of Easter Family Camp and would like to stay for breakfast at Camp Greenville after the service, the cost is $6.00 per person.
Reservations are not necessary for the service or breakfast. Also, it could be windy or cool at the chapel, so you may want to dress in layers and bring a jacket.
For more information, call Patti at 864.836.3291, ext. 100 or email prettyplace@ymcagreenville.org. We look forward to seeing you at Pretty Place Easter Sunday!
