When we started what is now JesusFest in Auburn, Illinois exactly four years ago, it was a long 6 hour concert with one band after another way past dark, at the East Park. It has since evolved into a more compact and fast moving showcase of local and regional talent, presented to our fellow citizens for FREE! JESUSFEST 4 kicks off this coming Saturday September 20 at the Bandshell of Rock and Roll Hardees, 2501 Stevenson Drive in Springfield at 4pm!

First up will be the Chosen Generation ministry Band led by Don Hunt. A lively combination of gospel singers, Christian Rappers and for the first time, a group from Taylorville, Illinois. The main attraction this year is the first Power Team we ever had at a Business Men In Christ event. The Mighty Crush 3 Power Team is officially from Litchfield, Illinois and is led by pastor and body-builder Kevin Simsberger! You won’t want to miss this. The Power Team comes on around 6:30pm at the Rock and Roll Hardees Bandshell and their message is powerful, as well as their various feats of strength.

JesusFest is timed annually to fall close to the month of October, where we recognize and honor Breast Cancer Month.  A rep from the American Cancer Society will be present.

BRING YOUR LAWN CHAIRS AND BE PREPARED TO BE BLESSED AND ENTERTAINED!

Come up to Comer Cox Park (18th and Capitol)  on Saturday September 13th, join our  2nd Annual Prayer Walk and then get one of our programs! The program contains the prayer points listed below, which we will meditate upon (along with the accompanying Scripture) as we pray for Springfield. When we get to the end of the 2 mile walk, we will be at the East Steps of the Illinois State Capitol on  2nd and Capitol.  We have free cold bottles of water at the Capitol as well as some of our co-sponsors like WCIC from Peoria/Springfield and Mighty Strong Girls.
