A handful of pastors will hold in-person services on Easter Sunday despite social and governmental pressure to move their church functions online.

In Baltimore, Alvin Gwynn Sr., pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church, said he plans to hold an in-person service as he has been doing since Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan issued an executive order limiting public gatherings to 10 people during the coronavirus pandemic. Gwynn told the Washington Examiner that members of his church will try to remain safe while coming together.
