Press Release: Live Stream Response to National Call to Prayer


Pastor Allen Jackson, Donelson Fellowship’s Pastor Rob Morgan Join Forces to Lead people across the nation in Exercising Faith over Fear

WHAT: 
In a unique response to the recommendations from health officials that large gatherings be cancelled, and President Trump’s call to make Sunday, March 15, a National Day of Prayer for the coronavirus pandemic, Pastor Allen Jackson of World Outreach Church, My Faith Votes and Pastor Rob Morgan of Donelson Fellowship are joining forces to lead a service called “America, Its Time to Pray.” This new National Day of Prayer emphasis follows World Outreach Church’s monthly day of prayer and fasting, held on the tenth of every month, for the state and the nation. Last October, Tennessee’s Governor Bill Lee established a Day of Prayer for Tennessee, and part of World Outreach Church’s prayer has been that every state would follow suit. Now, with the call for national prayer issued by President Trump, the church is extending an invitation for congregations across the nation to join them, along with the My Faith Votes organization, in praying for faith over fear and God’s intervention in the spread of COVID-19.

WHO: 
Allen Jackson is senior pastor of World Outreach Church, a congregation of 15,000 in Murfreesboro, Tennessee; he is also founder of Allen Jackson Ministries, through which his biblical messages have been broadcast nationally and internationally on multiple platforms.

He will share many of these stories during his time with Pastor Jackson tomorrow.

World Outreach Church will hold a live streamed service this weekend, which will include live worship, at 10:30 a.m. CDT on Sunday, March 15 in response to the recommendations from health officials that large gatherings be cancelled, and President Trump’s call to make the day a National Day of Prayer for the coronavirus pandemic.
