What Time Is Easter Sunrise Service At Stone Mountain Park 2018

The annual tradition began 78 years ago, in 1944, with members of Stone Mountain Kickoff United Methodist Church climbing to the top.

STONE Mount, Ga. — Later a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the Easter sunrise service returned to Stone Mountain Park Sunday with thousands of visitors.

Bryant Wright and Crawford Loritts delivered the Easter message to those who climbed the mountain or took the heaven ride to the acme.

"I am only filled with joy in getting to share the sunrise service with then many," Wright said, "and, as I shared in the service, to be able to preach on Easter Lord's day as a retired Pastor, that's a wonderful joy to share the good news of Jesus."

The annual tradition began 78 years ago, in 1944, when Stone Mount Kickoff United Methodist Church congregant Lucille A. Lanford suggested that the church's youth grouping climb to the top of Rock Mountain on Easter morning time to picket the sunrise.

"It was just an extraordinary experience, especially coming later the pandemic to run into so many people who have shown up," Loritts said. "The enthusiasm here and the beautiful weather that God gave the states, and just the response of the people, that they were riveted and engaged. Information technology was just a wonderful, wonderful time."

Wright is the founder and chairman of Right From The Heart Ministries, an international media ministry, which he began in 1992. He is also the President of the international relief organization, Send Relief. He retired equally the founding Senior Pastor of Johnson Ferry Baptist Church in 2019. Loritts is president and founder of Across Our Generation. He has been a church planter, served for 27 years on the staff of Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ), and served for 15 years as Sr. Pastor of Fellowship Bible Church in Roswell.
