Over a dozen churches gather for local March for Jesus
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) — Communities around the world gathered for the March for Jesus event on Saturday, including the Mahoning Valley.
Locally, the march was held at South High School in Youngstown. Over a dozen local churches participated, sharing their praise and growing the community.
Organizers say this event is focused on bringing different people together to focus on their united faith.
'All churches, all denominations coming together just to celebrate Jesus, put aside any differences we may have and focus on our one common factor, and that's the love of Jesus and sharing that with our community,' said Stephanie McKelvey, regional coordinator of March for Jesus.
March for Jesus is a national event to bring church communities together.
