Dexter, Missouri - On Sunday, February 4, 2018 three churches are coming together to worship at the Bearcat Event Center; however the event is open to the public so anyone may attend.
"We are doing this for a few reasons," commented Greg McGhee of the First Baptist Church in Dexter. "It's DNOW weekend and space at our church has run out and it's no longer a First Baptist Church event anymore, more and more churches are getting involved. Also it is an opportunity to get other churches to participate in the Sunday final service of DNOW."
"In John 17 Jesus prayed 'may they (talking about us) be one as you (his Father) and I are one so that the world may know that you have sent Me."
"We are expecting about 1,000 people in attendance," continued McGhee. "We will also have Harris III speaking and performing that morning as well as the DNOW Band."
Harris III is a Christian magician. With over 20 years of experience through thousands of performances as an illusionist, storyteller, and renowned communicator, Harris has helped audiences around the globe discover a life beyond their imagination. Named “one of America’s most influential young people” by the Catalyst Conference, Harris has made a variety of film, television, and live event appearances during the course of his 20-year career.
An offering will be taken from those in attendance with all proceeds going to benefit Backpack for Friday program as a way of pouring back into the community.
Anyone may attend the service at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, February 4th at the Bearcat Event Center.
If your church would like to participate or you have further questions please contact Greg McGhee at the First Baptist Church at (573) 624-7436.
