Students from Cherokee County will join their counterparts on athletic fields across the country for the annual Fields of Faith event.

The sixth annual event win Cherokee County will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 21 at Cherokee High Schooo.

This rapidly-growing, interdenominational outreach event will be held at more than 500 locations throughout the country.

While many Christian rallies are anchored to an entertainer or professional speaker that creates a spectator event, Fields of Faith is structured to serve as a student-to-student ministry.

Peers invite their own classmates and teammates to meet on their school’s athletic field to hear fellow students share their testimonies, challenge them to read the Bible and to come to faith in Jesus Christ.

Last year, approximately 1,500 students and supporters attended at the event, which is held on Tommy Baker Field at the school.

The event will get underway at 7 p.m. at the school, located at 930 Marietta Highway. For more information, contact Brandon Roberts at 678-232-7488 or brobertsfca@gmail.com.
