SMITH COUNTY, Texas (KLTV) - The nearly 1,500 people who received their first COVID-19 vaccines at three churches March 16-19, are asked to come back next week to the same place for their second doses.
Organizers are asking only those who received their first shots at St. Peter Claver Catholic Church and St. Louis Baptist Church in Tyler, and New Zion Baptist Church in Winona, to return to the same location on the same day of the week at around the same time as their first vaccine.
Trying to get a COVID-19 vaccination in Winnebago County is a very difficult task to accomplish. Having another mass vaccination site will be a big help.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has forced most people to change the way they interact with others at work, at school and at play, and houses of worship are no different.
Worship leaders in Terrebonne and Lafourche say attendance at services is down physically, but virtual outreach has brought in new members, even from outside of Louisiana.
Many of those leaders say congregations have supported one another both emotionally and spiritually in the safest ways they can and have grown closer as a result.
The Rev. John Cox, of University Baptist Church in Thibodaux, said members of his congregation have found creative ways to retain the social interactions that were made difficult or impossible during the pandemic.

In Birmingham, King taught love in the face of hate.
This January would have marked King’s 91st birthday.
King was born on Jan. 15, 1929, in Atlanta. He was killed on April 4, 1968, in Memphis. King’s wife, Coretta, was born in Marion, King was a pastor in Montgomery, and Alabama was a major backdrop for the events of his life, including the setting for his classic 1963 plea for civil rights, “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”
