Fields of Faith came to Marshfield at the football stadium on Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2017. The event started with a tailgate at 5:30 p.m. followed by Fields of Faith at 7 p.m.

“The tailgate allows family and friends to get together to have fun, eat food and worship God,” said Marshfield Church of the Nazarene pastor, Shawn Elwood.

Fields of Faith attracted many new people this year, one of which was Reagan Smith from Osage Baptist Church.

“This is actually my first time coming to Fields of Faith and I am really excited to see what happens,” said Smith at the beginning of the event.

Fields of Faith started with songs played by the band, followed by student testimonies and a guest speaker. Students testimonies were given by Joseph Jinks, Wyatt Dudley, William Snider and Krenna Freeman. Following student testimonies, guest speaker Sara Forhetz from KY3 News, talked to the group about her life experience while running her first Iron-Man, a multi-event sporting contest demanding stamina, in particular a consecutive triathlon of swimming, cycling, and running. Forhetz also talked to the group about how you just need to keep your eyes on the Lord and to just keep running when you are in a situation like that, because Jesus is just around the corner.
