Join Us for Praise in the Park on October 30th
Jackson, TN – Jackson’s third-annual Season of Unity continues on Sunday, October 30th at
the Ballpark of Jackson, home of the Jackson Generals, with Praise in the Park. Local
churches will host a combined service at 5:30 p.m. for a time of praise and worship with
the Jackson Voices of Unity Choir and special guests, the Oral Roberts Praise and Worship
team NU Voices from Tulsa, Oklahoma. The evening will conclude with a gospel-themed
fireworks show.
This year’s Praise in the Park event is a fresh take with a new structure and location. For
the past two years, area churches have joined together in unity for a series of combined
praise and worship services in one of the city’s beautiful parks to celebrate this event.
“For this year, we chose to bring everyone together in a more concentrated way by
gathering together in one location as the Season of Unity calls for us to do,” said William
Watson, pastor of Historic First Baptist Church and chair of this year’s Praise in the Park.
“This change in venue will allow us to unify our worship time and fellowship together in
an even more meaningful way.”
The event will feature a variety of speakers, such as Jordan Easley, Eugene Brandt, Rhonda
Pettigrew, Angela Snider and Jason Price. Selections by the Jackson Voices of Unity Choir
will include “Glorious,” “Every Praise” and “So Amazing.”
Participating churches include: Christian Lifeway Ministries, Destiny Church Jackson,
Englewood, Fellowship Bible Church, Greater Visions Ministries, Highland Park Church,
Historic First Baptist Church, Love & Truth Church, Macedonia Baptist Church, New
Jerusalem Church of God in Christ, Saint Mark Church of Christianity, Unity Temple COGIC,
Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church and West Bemis Baptist Church.
