Jay Bakker to preach April 29




Jay Bakker will preach at the 10:10 AM liturgy at St. Aidan's Episcopal Church in San Francisco, April 29. Jay Bakker is a 30 year old pastor who grew up witnessing both the good and bad of the church. His parents are Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker, ministers-turned-TV-hosts who helped start both the Trinity Broadcasting Network and the 700 Club in the 1970's, and later founded the PTL (Praise The Lord) Club. Jay started a church for those who feel rejected by traditional approaches to Christianity; this church is called Revolution. The idea behind Revolution is to show all people the unconditional love and grace of Jesus without any reservations due to their lifestyles or background, past or future.

Currently Jay is the center of ONE PUNK, UNDER GOD, an observational documentary series on the Sundance Channel that takes an all-access look inside the life of Jay Bakker and his Revolution ministry. Jay travels the country speaking to churches and organizations, encouraging them to reach out to the lost and hurting. His goal is to return to the grassroots of Christianity founded on inclusion, love and grace; his heart is helping people realize that God loves them no matter what.

St. Aidan's is located at 101 Gold Mine Drive in the Diamond Heights neighborhood of San Francisco.
