Local favourites “Mercy” will bookend the 2018 season of Sunday Evening in the Park.
The Dresden & District Christian Ministerial Association presents one hour of live Gospel and Christ-centred music and messages on stage at Jackson Park in Dresden starting June 24 and continuing every Sunday to the Labour Day weekend.
Since the late 1960s, Dresden-area churches have presented some form of music and message on Sunday evenings in the open air. It’s an opportunity not only to present reasons for the hope we have in Christ, but to prove that 13 congregations can work together in Christian unity.
This year’s lineup:
June 24: Mercy
July 1: Jeremy Smith
July 8: One-A-Chord
July 15: 1st Presbyterian
July 22: Marc & Kim Reid
July 29: The Chapelaires
Aug. 5: Don & Bonnie Cook
Aug 12: Tina Pumfrey
Aug. 19: Jeff & Tim
Aug. 26: Holy Ground
Sept. 2: Mercy
The music begins at 7 p.m. and includes a 10-12 minute message from a local pastor. An offering is taken which pays for the musicians and supports the work of the ministerial.
Bring a lawn chair or enjoy the music from your vehicle. Rain location is Dresden Community Church.
