ALTO PASS, Ill. (KFVS) – The Bald Knob Cross of Peace in Alto Pass hosts the very first Unite at the Cross Christian Music Festival.
The festival is a two-day event with live music performances, food, shops and more.
Jeffrey Isbell, managing director of Bald Knob Cross, said planning for this event took months.
Isbell says all the hard work and challenges were worth it to see everyone come together at the crossroads.
“It’s a divided world, but our founders 80 something, 85 years ago arranged an Easter sunrise service to unite people,” Isbell said. “And here we are today, now 60 years after the cross was completed by uniting people in this Association at the cross Christian music festival. The mission is in our name.”
The event will continue tomorrow with gates opening at 1pm and music starting at 3pm.
