WNZR goes On The Road with Big Blue to Praisestock!
Join WNZR at Praisestock on Sunday 8/23
Praisestock is an annual outdoor live Christian worship event highlighting outreach in the
community.
Location: Ariel-Foundation Park, Schnormeier Event Center
Date: Sunday, August 23, 2026
Time: 10am – 6pm
Praisestock 2026 is directed by a board of directors representing several local sponsoring churches and other faith-based organizations.
The event begins at 10 a.m. at the Schnormeier Event Center with a Community Worship Service. Several churches have committed to holding their traditional Sunday service together and invite those of all denominations, including those without a home church.
Gregory Helinski will provide the message. Ekklesia will provide the music.
A love offering will be taken during the service to benefit Food for the Hungry for its 2026 food drive. Contributions will also be accepted to support the ongoing ministry of Praisestock.
From Noon to 6:00PM, bands and worship teams will continue the worship event. This family-friendly event will include children’s activities and offer food from local vendors. Numerous local Christian community action organizations will have display tables with information about their ministries and programs. It is a great opportunity to learn about and interact with those who are on the front lines in serving the people in our community.
