Carrie Prejean, Miss California and Miss USA’s first runner up, is scheduled to be part of her home church's Sunday message, billed as: "No Compromise: Standing Firm On Your Faith."

Prejean will appear at the Rock Church in San Diego. The services will also be availablelive at the church's Web site. Prejean is a member of the Rock family and actively serves in church outreach ministries, according to a press release issued by the church.

 

The Rock Church press release continues: 

"During the question and answer portion of Sunday’s Miss USA pageant, Prejean expressed her belief that marriage should be between a man and a woman, touching off a firestorm of widely publicized criticism from pageant judge and nationally known celebrity blogger Perez Hilton. In subsequent appearances, Prejean has stood fast in her morals and Biblical truths, refusing to compromise her faith.

Sunday's services will feature a discussion with the Rock’s Senior Pastor Miles McPherson, who spent time with Prejean in the critical hours following the pageant. They will share the story behind the controversy that we haven’t heard."

Rock Church was started by former NFL player Miles McPherson 2000. It is now San Diego’s largest church and the nation's second fastest growing church according to Outreach Magazine. Located in the Point Loma area of San Diego, the Rock sanctuary is home to 12,000 church attendees during its five weekly Sunday services.

The live stream of Prejean will be archived for later online viewing.
