Just added to the list is Harmony Grove Missionary Baptist Church in Canon.

They will have a Memorial Day Program on Sunday, May 28 beginning at 3:00 PM.

Pastor David Johnson of New Light Baptist Church in Lavonia Ga. will be the guest minister.

All of the proceeds from the program will be used to maintain the Historical Harmony Grove Missionary Baptist Church Cemetery where slaves and soldiers from virtually every war are buried.

Pastor G.L. Walton, Harmony Grove Host  Pastor, tells WLHR News the public is invited to attend the Memorial Day service.

Services are also planned on Monday, May 29 at the Veterans Memorial on the campus of the Franklin County Courthouse and in Hart County on the grounds of the Hart County Courthouse.
