Pack up the babies, and grab the old ladies, and everyone goes…
Hot August night and the leaves hanging down
And the grass on the ground smellin’ sweet
Move up the road to the outside of town
And the sound of that good gospel beat
Sits a ragged tent where there ain’t no trees
And that gospel group tellin’ you and me
It’s Love, Brother Love, say Brother Love’s Traveling Salvation Show
Gather with UUs from Athens, Beckley, Charleston, Huntington, Marietta, West Fork and Morgantown for fun and fellowship and a tent revival Sunday service on the Power of Universal Love. Friends and family are welcome.
Mountwood Park near Parkersburg, Saturday and Sunday, August 26 and 27
