The Heart of a Volunteer: Bold Hope in Service

Praisefest doesn’t happen without the people behind the scenes. From parking and registration to kids’ activities and clean‑up, volunteers are the heartbeat of this event.

This year, as we celebrate 15 years of Praisefest, we’re trusting that the same Bold Hope we sing about on stage will overflow into how we serve one another. Whether you’re handing out snacks, guiding families to the right stage, or packing meals for the “March to a Million,” your role matters.

Join our volunteer team for Praisefest 2026, September 24–27, 2026 and be part of a community that shows up, serves generously, and worships with bold hope.

One of our pillars of Praisefest: Worship – Bold Hope in Song

At the heart of Praisefest is this truth: God is worthy of our praise. For 15 years, we’ve gathered in the Flint Hills to lift our voices together, from local bands to national headliners, creating space where people can encounter God in a real way.

This year we’re building that space around the theme Bold Hope, inspired by 2 Corinthians 3:12: “Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold.”

Praisefest 2026 will be headlined by Megan Woods, with Presence Worship opening the night — two powerful voices helping us lead the crowd into a bolder, deeper worship.

Join us September 24–27, 2026 as we celebrate 15 years of worship, community, and generosity.

This is what Bold Hope looks like — not just singing songs, but serving people.

As we celebrate 15 years of Praisefest, we’re inviting you to be part of a movement that reaches beyond the Flint Hills and into the world.

Join us September 24–27, 2026 and help us continue the march toward a million meals.
