Mike Pence to host Pigeon Forge conference

PIGEON FORGE, TN — Phil Waldrep Ministries will be hosting Mike Pence, former vice president of the United States, at their annual Celebrators Conference in Pigeon Forge in October. He will be joined by his wife, Karen Pence.

The gathering begins on Monday, October 11 at the LeConte Center and ends on Thursday morning, October 14. The Pences will participate in Wednesday night’s patriotic program.

“Wednesday night will be a time to pray for our country, honor our veterans and celebrate our nation,” said conference founder, Phil Waldrep.

Celebrators brought 43rd president George W. Bush to Pigeon Forge in 2018 where he gave a non-political, patriotic address with approximately 10,000 people in attendance. 2018 was his fourth time at the conference.

“It’s always an honor to share our stage with one of our nation’s leaders,” said Waldrep. “I am looking forward to interviewing the Pences about their faith, family and love for our country.”

Celebrators Conference is specially planned for active, mature adults to experience spiritual fulfillment, Bible teaching, fellowship and fun.

This year’s four day and three night event will also include teaching from Dr. David Jeremiah and conference founder Phil Waldrep, a night of laughs with motivational comedian Dennis Swanberg and times of worship with musical guests Gordon Mote, The Collingsworth Family, Charles Billingsley and the Gaither Vocal Band.

Since its beginning in 1994, Celebrators has hosted prominent guests George and Laura Bush, Mike Huckabee, Tim Tebow, Max Lucado and Mark Lowry.

Waldrep’s ministry has over 40,000 people attending their events each year.

Phil Waldrep Ministries, based in Decatur, Alabama, seeks to make a difference in the lives of people. This is accomplished through conferences such as Women of Joy, Gridiron, and Celebrators, as well as speaking engagements, online devotionals and Pastor’s Encouragement Retreats.
