We just returned from attending the Great Smokies Praisefest, our 2nd year of attending.  If you like gospel music, this is a wonderful event.  It starts with a concert Monday night, then Tuesday morning & night, land Wed morning and night. It is sponsored by Greater Vision, and also features about a dozen other gospel artists & groups.  Plus the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville area is beautiful, particularly at Christmas time. It is truly a life enriching. even life changing event
