Community Worship Night to unite churches, life-affirming organizations

January 21, 2026 by Staff Reports

First Baptist Church of Concord will host a community-wide Worship Night Sunday, Jan. 25, in the Student Center/Gym of its church, 11704 Kingston Pike, bringing together churches, pro-life organizations and community members from across the 865 region for an evening of worship, prayer and unity.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m., with worship beginning at 6 p.m. The evening will feature live worship, personal testimonies, a message from Pastor John Mark Harrison and focused prayer for the greater Knoxville communities, particularly around the value and sanctity of human life.

“Organizers emphasized the event is not a fundraiser or political rally, but a gathering centered on faith, worship and prayer,” a FBC press release stated. “Attendees will also have the opportunity to connect with local life-affirming organizations that serve women, families and individuals throughout the region.”

“This night is about unity,” organizer Breanne Houston said. “We’re coming together simply to worship the Lord, pray for our city and seek God’s heart for life, healing and hope in our community.”

The Worship Night is open to the public, and individuals, families and church groups are encouraged to attend.
