Gather on the Grass Worship Inc. is a nonprofit organization whose ministry focuses on hosting outdoor Christian Praise & Worship Music Events. The group’s mission is to carry the Gospel of Jesus Christ outside the walls of the church and into the streets to reach the lost, broken and unchurched by offering an atmosphere of complete love and acceptance to all persons from all walks of life who may not otherwise be led to take the first step inside of a church.
