Three of America’s best loved preachers, Dr John Hagee, Bishop TD Jakes and Pastor Rod Parsley will be featured live on the God Channel this weekend as part of a major ‘Feast of Tabernacles’ celebration in the USA.

The Feast of Tabernacles is celebrated annually by millions of Christians worldwide as a forerunner of Zechariah 14:16, which says the nations shall gather each year to worship God and keep the Feast.

This event, hosted by Dr Hagee also aims to promote unity between Christians and Jews emphasising the common ground they share.

John Hagee is the pastor of Cornerstone Church in Texas and a strong supporter of solidarity between Christians and Jews. He also has deep ties with the State of Israel and the Jewish people and the event will culminate on Monday 15 October with a LIVE broadcast featuring ‘A Night to Honour Israel’.

The leader of the Potter's House - a 30,000 member non-denominational church in Dallas, Texas - Bishop Jakes is a renowned speaker and best-selling author who has a half-hour programme on God TV.

The leader of World Harvest Church, Ohio; Rod Parsley is also the President of the Centre for Moral Clarity; and a national leader in Christians United for Israel, an organisation which aims to rally Christians with a love for Israel into a grassroots movement.

God TV founders, Rory & Wendy Alec have said they are pleased to support this high-profile event and live broadcast which will help Christians to better understand the value of the Jewish roots of their faith.

“As the only Christian broadcaster in the world to transmit directly from Jerusalem, we are committed to blessing the nation of Israel as commanded to do so in scripture; as well as to pray for the Peace of Jerusalem; and we encourage all believers to tune in and enjoy this special programming,” said God TV chief executive, Rory Alec.

Sky TV viewers will be able to watch TD Jakes on channel 760 on Saturday 13 October at 22:30; Rod Parsley on Sunday 14 October at 11:30; and John Hagee later the same day at 17:00; as they tune in to the Feast of Tabernacles broadcast on GOD TV.

The programmes can also be watched online at www.god.tv
