Gospel on the Green 2025 Brings the Praise
The sound of praise echoed through Maumee as Gospel on the Green 2025 turned the Lucas County Fairgrounds into a joyful celebration of faith, music and community.
Gospel on the Green Weekend unfolded over two uplifting evenings—Saturday, August 2, and Sunday, August 3, 2025—at the Lucas County Fairgrounds.
Presented by A Servants Heart LLC, owned by Rob Campbell, the spiritual celebration fused with live gospel performances from Toledo’s own as well as marquee performers Tim Rogers & The Fellas, Fred Hammond, Kierra Sheard and Tye Tribbett, offered a weekend filled with soul-stirring music, powerful messages, and a whole lot of fun with the event hosted by Bishop Randall Parker III of Canaan Manifested Word Church.
With over a 1,000 individuals in attendance over the weekend, the event clearly resonated with the local community and beyond. It was a weekend filled with spiritual experience, building bonds and uplifting music.
Not only did attendees enjoy great music but they also were able to purchase merch from various vendors who set up shop. Vendors such as “It’s Personal” by Tiara Armstrong and K. Sweets Cookies came out to allow guests to purchase items while they enjoyed the festivities .
If you missed Gospel on the Green Weekend 2025 then you missed a weekend that was a vibrant two-day gathering where music, faith, and community came together all under one roof to provide a soulful celebration with memorable performances and an inspiring message that will lead into next year’s celebration.
