Scenes of Praise in the Park, 2012

The more than 1,000 people attended this year's annual Praise in the Park event in Rochester Municipal Park.

Organized by St. John's Lutheran Church and School, the event is a community day of worship and celebration and  an opportunity to recognize local first responders, veterans, and current members of our Armed Forces.

The event included a Patriotic Songfest by St. John's Male Chorus, a "Victory" message by new Senior Pastor Marc Schwichtenberg, a picnic/ice cream social, a vintage vehicle display, ministry fair, Olympic-themed games and activities, and a children's decorated "Red, White, and Cute" Wheels parade.
