Saturday evening, the lawn of the McCreary County Courthouse became a place where people gathered, connected, worshipped, and simply spent time together as a community.
Whether you attended for the music, the testimonies, the fellowship, or just to sit and listen, it was encouraging to see so many people from different churches, backgrounds, and walks of life come together in one place.
The organizers shared that approximately 150–160 people attended throughout the evening. More importantly, they shared stories of conversations, prayers, encouragement, renewed hope, and people supporting one another. Several attendees have already asked when and where the next gathering will be held.
As someone who works to bring events to our community, I believe we need opportunities that bring people together. In a world that often feels divided and overwhelming, evenings that encourage hope, kindness, unity, and reflection are important.
Thank you to Embracing Your Story Ministries, the worship team, volunteers, prayer team, speakers, and everyone who attended and helped make the event possible.
No matter where you are in life, we can all agree that our communities are stronger when people come together, support one another, and leave encouraged.
Thank you for choosing Whitley City for this special evening.
