Joel & Victoria Osteen Announce Yankee Stadium in NYC for Next "America's Night of Hope"
HOUSTON, Jan. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- On Saturday, June 7, 2014, Joel and Victoria Osteen will hold their 6th annual "America's Night of Hope" at Yankee Stadium; an evening of hope and inspiration expected to draw over 55,000 people from across the country.
This is the second America's Night of Hope at Yankee Stadium. The first was on April 25, 2009 — nine days after the new ballpark opened — and was the first non-baseball event held at the venue. These annual stadium-sized events have also been held at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles (2010), U.S. Cellular Field in Chicago (2011), Nationals Park in Washington D.C. (2012) and Marlins Park in Miami (2013).
"Victoria and I love the people of New York," said Pastor Joel Osteen. "We're excited to be at Yankee Stadium again, and we believe people will be uplifted and filled with an expectation that their best days are still to come."
As a part of the activities surrounding "America's Night of Hope," Joel Osteen Ministries will reach into New York City's local communities with hundreds of volunteers – many from Houston – in order to bring hope through acts of kindness and compassion. Known as The Generation Hope Project® this effort is a major part of the America's Night of Hope event and, since 2012, has already provided thousands of volunteer hours of service through work projects at schools, parks, and community centers in Washington D.C. and Miami, Florida. This year's Generation Hope Project® will focus on mentoring — developing one-to-one relationships in which one person fosters the personal and professional growth of someone else. Volunteers will have an opportunity to work with young people who need strong adult role models. To volunteer, sign up at www.generationhopeproject.com.
