Seven x 7- churches call thousands to Pray for Peace in South St. Petersburg -

Every May the murder rate climbs for a long-hot summer, while a record number of young people are killed in the streets. This year the spree started early in March with four back-to-back murders in South St. Petersburg, beginning with 18-year old Levaud Landers.

In 2008, the faith community has united to do something about it!

On Thursday, May 1st 2008, the Seven x 7 movement of 49+ churches is calling thousands of people to fill up Gibbs High Football stadium in a Prayer for Peace in South St. Pete. Be there to hear the plan for street-level outreach all summer-long. Doors open at 6P for live praise directed by Music Minister Ricky Welch and at 7P for prayer. Gibbs High is located at 850 34th Street S. in St. Pete.
