At its recent 50th anniversary celebration, the Southside Church of Christ in Hopkinsville, Ky., dedicated a veterans’ Garden of Honor.
An estimated 20,000 motorists who pass by each day can see the memorial on the church’s front lawn, minister Terry Alan Jones said.
About 600 present and former members attended the anniversary celebration and memorial dedication.
The church is near the Fort Campbell Army post and includes a number of military families.
“I believe the Garden of Honor is unique among Churches of Christ,” Jones said. It “has received much notice and appreciation from the community.”
