Yellow Creek Baptist Church has large turnout for their annual Patriotic Celebration and Fireworks Show

Yellow Creek Baptist ChurchCumberland City, TN – Yellow Creek Baptist Church kicked off the Independence Day holiday with a bang Sunday evening, July 1st, 2018 with their annual Patriotic Celebration and Fireworks event.

It was a night filled with singing, fellowship and great food. This year’s guest vocalist was Steve Ladd. Ladd has been at the event for the last two years.

“We are blessed to have such good weather tonight for the fireworks. Yellow Creek has been doing this event for a few years now. We always brought in a choir, band and someone to sing. Then we give everyone a opportunity to receive Jesus as their Lord and savior,” said Brother Phillip Chambers, Senior Pastor.

Yellow Creek grilled 240 lbs of Pork Butts for this year’s event. BBQ sandwiches, hotdogs, chips, and cookies were available for everyone that attended. A little over 1,500 people came to Yellow Creek for the singing, food and the fireworks show.

The fireworks lasted about 15 minutes and was one of the best shows in the area. The company that does the Nashville Sounds, Tennessee Vols and Tennessee Titans fireworks shows did this one.

“We had plenty of food for everyone this year. I just sat down after the fireworks and ate the last BBQ sandwich,” stated Chambers. “The evening went really well. We are thankful that so many people came out to enjoy the singing and of course the firework show.”

“I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone that help us put this event on. We really appreciate everybody coming out tonight,” said Chambers.
