MAIN EVENT
You are here: Home >> Summer
Doors open at 7 pm, event begins at 8:45 pm.
We are going to allow groups to save seats, but we will only allow that in the back half of Strickland Auditorium. We'd like for you to call the GP office the week before, and let us know how many seats you want saved. If you choose not to call, you can arrive anytime before 7:00 pm and seats will be available first come, first serve. If your seats are not occupied by 7:30pm, we will open these up to the general public. Each week we are going to leave the front few rows for kids who come without a youth group. Our air conditioned tent will be cooled off and ready for your group by 6:00pm, if they want to get to Epworth early and hang out.
A dynamic student gathering of over 1,000 teenagers weekly during the summer months. An event filled with lights, engaging music, skits, and relevant gospel teaching where some nation’s most gifted communicators share the powerful reality of a relationship with Jesus Christ on a weekly. You’ve got to see it to believe it!
The Main Event takes place on Sunday nights at Strickland Auditorium at Epworth-by-the-Sea on St. Simons Island
