2010 River Fest Outreach

It is time to mark your calendars and make plans to participate in the 2010 River Fest outreach. Our outreach will be from May 13th to 15th. We will have street evangelists here to work with you and to help train our church members. Walking with Power will return this year for our main event and will be with us on the street to share the Gospel. We also plan on having a booth that will stamp horse shoes with John 3:16 and personalize it for each person while they share the Gospel. Our Cowboy church and our Equestrian ministries will be involved in this outreach. We also need face painters and other help with the block party equipment. We also welcome any praise and worship team/band that would like to provide music before the main event.

I was asked by one of our newer churches as to why we don’t get together as an association to work together and fellowship together. My answer to them was that I would like to see all of us get together for the block party and outreach on the last Saturday of River Fest. The River Fest itself is getting less and less family friendly. This would give us a great opportunity to come together as a family to fellowship and show that love to the rest of Wichita and all River Fest visitors. This would also be a great time to bring your friends and neighbors to fellowship with us and to hear the Gospel presented by the power team.

For River Fest 2009, we had the best participation from our churches that we have ever had and our prayer is to have even more participate this year. Please contact me if you have any questions or if you have any ideas that would help make this event a great success.
