MegaFest International 2008

DALLAS, TX — The much anticipated return of MegaFest was announced by Bishop T. D. Jakes, Senior Pastor of The Potter’s House. MegaFest, the hugely successful, record setting, family friendly event will return in 2008 and will move from Atlanta, GA to South Africa. The dates for MegaFest International are October 6 – October 20, 2008.

“I am so excited about the return of MegaFest and the fact that it will be in South Africa, makes it that much more special,” said Jakes. Jakes also acknowledged that MegaFest International was the next logical step in the evolution of the event. “At the previous MegaFest events, we had people attend from all over the world, all ethnicities, all religions; so many different cultures were in the room. As I looked out, the feel was so much more aligned to an international event, than a US specific event,” said Jakes. “I believe the true purpose of the ministry is to go beyond your traditional walls and minister to the world. MegaFest International provides us with that platform.”

Those wishing to attend have several registration options:

• Calling customer service at 877-TDJ-MEGA for pricing, specific event information and booking
• Visiting the website at Mega-Fest.com
• Completing registration at the sign-up tables before and after service at The Potter’s House Church

The 11-day event, with accommodations at some of the finest hotels in South Africa, will include many of the popular elements that made the original MegaFest a crowd favorite: concerts, moving seminars, outstanding speakers and of course, Bishop T. D. Jakes.
