North Carolina: Hundreds Respond to the Gospel at Annual ‘FaithFest’ Attended by Tens of Thousands
by Karen Faulkner, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – Hundreds of people answered the call to “surrender their lives” to Jesus during the seventh annual FaithFest Christian music festival attended by 30,000 people in Wilkesboro, North Carolina on Saturday.
Established by Craig Church Ministries, the annual FaithFest “uses worship music and the Word of God “to unite believers, save the lost, bring a community together, and spark a revival that will change our area and beyond,” the event’s website explains.
“It’s all for Jesus,” the website statement emphasizes. “FaithFest is a tremendous undertaking and planning is a year-round endeavor. It takes hundreds of volunteers and an army of supporters to make this happen. This is not a money-making event, rather it is for the single cause of lifting up and glorifying Jesus Christ. Our hearts’ cry is that the people attending this event will be drawn into the very presence of our Lord and be forever changed.”
At least 70 people were baptized immediately, causing guest speaker Clayton King, pastor and founder of Crossroads, to write on social media: “Unreal. 30,000 people at FaithFest last night. Hundreds responded to the gospel.”
“I’ve never seen so many people so hungry and desperate for God in my life. I think we’re in the midst of a spiritual awakening. The world doesn’t see it. But I’m witnessing it,” King added.
