The annual JesusFest Christian music Fall outreach, by Springfield Business Men in Christ is this Saturday September 10 at the Bandshell of Rock and Roll Hardee’s, 2501 Stevenson Drive in Springfield, Illinois! JesusFest 6 is run by BMIC President Bernie Lutchman and Brian Powell of the Powerlight Fest Team. The goal, therein, is to promote local Christian musicians, singers and acts like The Mighty Crush 3 Christian Power Team. This year, the leader of the Crush – Kevin Simsburger – will be pulling an 18-wheeler truck without the attached trailer!

The three plus hour concert starts at 4pm with a new singer named Gabe Powell and the following acts are on tap. Most are original musicians who span the spectrum of music styles from Contemporary Jazz Worship and Black Gospel to Hillsong styled Praise and Worship and Christian Rap. Performers are Roddrick Lamar, Angie Davis,  The New Life Worship Group and Zach Ayappa – Mama’s Boy (MB). We thank Jessie Browning, Promotions Director of WCIC FM (90.5 FM) Christian radio of Peoria, Lisa Rigoni of WCIC (Lisa is the Springfield Rep) and Joey Krol, manager of Springfield Christian radio WLUJ 89.7 FM.

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!
