FRENCHTOWN, Nj., June 26 /Christian Newswire/ -- Annual outdoor Labor Day Weekend music festival Revelation Generation - held August 29-30 at Revelation Farms in Frenchtown, NJ - has just announced a partnership with Pillar of Fire Ministries and tri-state area radio station, Star99 (99.1 WAWZ-FM). Other organizations involved in the partnership include sibling music festival Autumn Blaze, Somerset Christian College and Zarephath Christian Church. As part of the strategic alliance, Star99 will sponsor the concert's Friday night activities which include performances by Chris Tomlin, Leeland and American Idol finalist Mandisa. The radio station will also aid Revelation Generation in its online, on-air and on-site promotional efforts. Concurrently, Pillar of Fire Ministries will assist in the mobilization of volunteers for the concert through its established network with Autumn Blaze and Zarephath Christian Church. As an additional bonus, Rob Cruver, senior pastor of Zarephath Christian Church, Chancellor of Somerset Christian College and Co-Founder of Autumn Blaze, will address and speak with concert-goers during Friday night's events.

"Forging a partnership of this magnitude is incredibly exciting for us," said Robert Grom, co-founder of Revelation Generation with wife Kim Grom. "Pillar of Fire Ministries, Star99, Autumn Blaze, SCC and Zarephath all have such massive reach and dedicated missions – and we are thrilled to have their support for this year's concert. And to have Rob [Cruver] join us on Friday night is truly amazing."

Star99, located in Somerset County, is a radio station dedicated to challenging listeners to live with a greater purpose and passion. The station is one of the most listened-to Christian music radio stations in the country. Star99's coverage ranges from Philadelphia to New York City to southern New Jersey – a listenership that provides Revelation Generation with massive potential reach. In addition to a heavy on-air commitment, Star99 will conduct a number of remote radio broadcasts, live from Revelation Generation on both days of the show.

"I have a strong relationship with Bob and truly believe in the RevGen mission of connecting with and reaching young people through faith," said Cruver. "We began Autumn Blaze about 15 years ago for many of the same reasons and have experienced the same thrills associated with impacting thousands of young lives. And because we share a similar passion and vision with RevGen, it’s a joy to link hearts, arms and resources."
