True Vine Ministries
We are excited to extend an invitation to you for our annual Community Praise in the Park event, hosted by True Vine Ministries International. This year’s celebration will be held on October 18, 2025, at Veterans Memorial Park, starting at 12:00 PM. Our theme for this year is “Positioned for Purpose” inspired by the scripture II Timothy 1: 9-10 (KJV), : "who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel."
Community Praise in the Park is a joyous occasion where we come together to worship, fellowship, and celebrate the love of Jesus Christ. The event will feature uplifting music, inspiring messages, prayer sessions, and activities for all ages. All musicians, praise and worship teams, solos, Christian artists, praise dancers, etc. are invited. This is a wonderful opportunity to experience the presence of God in the beauty of His creation.
