🙏 Our first Prayer Under the Trees was held this morning. Despite moving the program indoors due to rain, we were honored to have Pastor Brad Asbury of Millen Baptist Church lead this month’s devotional gathering. He shared a meaningful message about our hands, reminding us that every pair of hands that passes through the hospital doors tells a story. The pastor spoke about the important role the hands of our healthcare workers play in the healing of Jenkins County and the surrounding communities.🩺

Following the devotional, Pastor Asbury was joined by Pastor Butch Taylor of Deep Creek Free Will Baptist Church, Pastor Edwin Taylor of Ogeechee Free Will Baptist Church, and Pastor Walter Hall of Grace Community Church for a special Blessing of the Hands with staff throughout the hospital.

✨Thank you to these local pastors for taking time to encourage and pray over our team, patients, and community. We also thank JCMC’s Cara Oglesby, Radiology Manager, and Andrea Graham, CEO, for coordinating this very special program.
