Suffolk, Va. – Perfecting Saints Church of God in Christ located in the Chuckatuck area of Suffolk took to the neighborhoods this weekend to spread the good news.

The parishioners made poster signs with catchy phrases such as “Got Jesus?” and “OMG, Jesus Loves Me” to grab the attention of passersby.

The idea originated from Suzanne Hollowell, member of Perfecting Saints and U.S. Navy.  Hollowell participated in a charity walk for her command and decided to do the same for her church.

Church members gathered in one of the neighborhoods to begin their walk on Saturday morning.  Tables were located at each corner and contained pamphlets and devotionals for spectators.  The church plans to continue doing walks on a recurring basis.
