NA's John Wesley AME Zion Church holding virtual services
NORTH ATTLEBORO - Local churches have certainly been impacted by Gov. Charlie Baker's stay at home advisory.
The members of the town's John Wesley AME Zion Church, located in the middle of single and multiple family homes, still meet each week via the Zoom videoconference app.
"We miss being with one another personally, it's hard not to hug one another, it's part of who we are, we're a touchy feely congregation and so it's hard," Woods-Barrant told North TV.
Pastor Robin Woods-Barrant joined North TV this week to discuss the impact of the COVID-19 restrictions.
