PEKIN (HOI) - A Good Friday tradition continued in Pekin.
This year marked Paul Helmig's 30th year dressing as Jesus Christ and carrying a giant cross on a four-mile journey.
It took Helmig four hours to complete the trek that started at BridgeWay Community Church.
People from around the area came to watch and show their support along his route. It's a gesture that leaves Helmig feeling emotional.
"It just brings tears," Helmig said.
Helmig adds that he does this every year to remind the community about Jesus' sacrifices and the significance of Easter weekend.
