A powerful worship concert and celebration of the weekend.

Tickets are $10 and can be purchased through the Dayton Dragons Box Office, with $1.00 from each ticket being donated to a recovery scholarship fund.
This will be the 14^th concert for the Declare Worship Community since 2014, following "Declare Dayton" at the University of Dayton Arena in 2016, five events around Greater Dayton in 2017, and now growing into multiple concerts around Greater Dayton and Cincinnati in 2018.
"We have been in communication with Fifth Third Field management and leaders across Greater Dayton for over a year to plan this weekend - seeing the support from church, community and city leaders has been overwhelming," commented Caleb Ingram, Executive Director of Declare Worship Community.
"I have great anticipation of how we can impact this city and region as we stand together to declare victory in Jesus over the brokenness around us. The best is yet to come, and that is only possible as we stand together to lead the way to a stronger future," noted Ingram.
