The first joint project by Gaither Music Group and Country’s Family Reunion, Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting features a lineup of beloved artists combining talents on one stage to celebrate their faith through inspiring stories and classic gospel hits, including “Victory in Jesus,” “Beulah Land,” “Sweet, Sweet Spirit,” “It Is Well,” “Rock of Ages” and more.

“We are excited to join hands with the Country’s Family Reunion team for the release of this recording,” stated Paul Sizelove, president of Gaither Music Group. “We have crossed paths with each other for many years. We all represent some of the most iconic Gospel and country artists, and we have spent years creating programming designed for a national TV audience. It is a joy to partner with an organization that shares so many of our goals and values.”

Country’s Family Reunion is known for spotlighting performances from country legends in unscripted, living-room-styled settings hosted by country music singer/songwriter icon Bill Anderson. Seen weekly on RFD-TV, the brand has become a weekly favorite for viewers anxious to hear some of their favorite artists tell candid stories and share personal inspiration.

In addition to the physical CD and DVD, the show will air as a TV special on PBS, RFD-TV, Circle TV, Heartland, TBN, Airtime, GaitherTV, CTN and Proclaim Broadcasting. In Canada, it will air on Vision TV, CTS, The Miracle Channel and Hope TV. The special will also be featured in November on GaitherTV (available on Roku, Amazon FireTV, AppleTV, Android TV, iOS and GooglePlay for mobile devices). Songs from the recording will be featured on the Gaither Radio station on Pandora, and the project will be positioned on the Gaither Amazon storefront.
