Hey Alex~ Checkin' in.. we saw little Macy yesterday at our church. My little Ava Drew had fun playing with her in class. She's adorable and sweet. She looks like she's recovering well with her cast off. Anyways.. that One Voice sounds aweome and just what Temec needs. Press on Bro!
When I was pastoring in Hawaii there were a lot of multi-church events/gatherings.
I'd say the biggest mistake was that the people organizing the events thought that they were good outreach opportunities. But at the same time it was just a churchy dog and pony show. So being clear what the purpose is and what is expected and actually sticking to it is huge.
the other issue is to keep it from being a %^*# swinging contest. I think this is best solved by bringing in the speaker from outside the community of churches involved. In Hawaii they knew this and would usually bring someone in. Keep the mic out of the hands of any senior/lead pastors hands and you will greatly increase chances of a successful night.

Sounds like a great night of great potential for worship, prayer and mobilization!
Several years ago, my friend, Jordan Fowler, used to host a multi-church worship conference. He might have one or two "pointers" for you.

Praying the ONE VOICE Worship Event will magnify the greatness and majesty of our God!
