A Community Worship Service is being held as part of the finale to the 2015 Trails West!® festival.

The festival opens on Sunday, at 11 a.m. for just a $2 wristband, which can be purchased at the gates, or from local churches. If you already have a Trails West!® button or t-shirt that will also get you in.

Shannen White, Trails West!® co-chair, feels “Trails West!® is one of the many reason why we love St. Joseph. Let’s band together and make St. Joseph an even stronger community. We are a city with passion, talent and heart. We all have a heart for the city.”

Scott Hawkins, Teaching Pastor at the Edge, opens the main stage Sunday at 1 p.m., followed by the Mid City Excellence Praise Dancers and the Word of Faith Community Praise Christian Fellowship. The Praise Dancers will be front and center and invite you to participate and worship with them.

Following the dancers, Reverend Bryan Gregory, Senior Pastor at Brookdale Presbyterian Church, will speak on “Seeking the good of the City” going along with the Trails West!® festival theme, “heART for the City.”
