2010 Prayer at the State Fair Dates
Sunday, August 29 and Sunday, September 5
from 9:15-9:45am in the State Fair Bandshell
Each year, during the last 10 days of August, Minnesota celebrates itself at the Great Minnesota Get-Together - the Minnesota State Fair.
The spirit of Christian Unity is celebrated at the Fair when the Minnesota Council of Churches presents Prayer at the Fair, an ecumenical worship service. Celebrants represent the many denominations that make up the Minnesota Council of Churches, and those in attendance come from many faith traditions.
Prayer at the Fair is designed as a celebration of God's creation, and time to rejoice in the abundance of life in Minnesota. The casual service contains the familiar form of church including hymns, prayers and a sermon, but gets into the fun spirit of the fair. We even use our traditional 'bulletins on a stick."
