Charismaniac entertainment centre church in Jacksonville presents jazz festival

Faith Christian Center in Jacksonville, Florida is a typical Word of Faith church, as can be inferred from the About Us section of their website:

Faith Christian Center (FCC) was founded in August 18,1996 by Bishop Keith A. Butler, Founder and Pastor of Word of Faith International Christian Center (WOFICC). FCC is part of the Word of Faith International Christian Center vision to open Word-based ministries throughout the United States and abroad.

Bishop George L. Davis was serving as an Assistant Pastor at WOFICC when he was called by God and appointed by Bishop Butler to open and Pastor the Jacksonville, Florida church. He and his beautiful wife, Pastor April Davis, relocated from Detroit, Michigan with a small contingent to begin what would grow into a vision to spread the good news of Jesus across seven cities in Florida, which we call "Impact 7"...

...Since its inception, Faith Christian Center continues to experience significant growth by the awesome power of God. In 2002 we launched our dedicated 26,000 square foot youth facility to minister to our next generation of Godly leaders. Consistent with our mission of fully equipping our members for a victorious life in Jesus, we go beyond our Thursday and Sunday services. FCC has been blessed to host such dynamic and anointed speakers as our Grand-Bishop Keith A. Butler, Marilyn Hickey, Peter Daniels, Dr. Don Colbert, Tim Storey, Dr. Creflo Dollar, Bill Winston, Rev. Jesse Duplantis, Mark Hankins, Myles Monroe, Dr. Phil Goudeaux, Keith Moore and many others.
In addition to the bishop's beautiful wife being listed as Senior Pastor, the list of "dynamic and anointed speakers," some of whom will be familiar to anyone who's been following the Word of Faith movement in recent years, should suffice to indicate that Faith Christian Center isn't characterized by sound doctrine.

I don't know if this might be classified as "community outreach," but Faith Christian Center is in the business of presenting jazz festivals, as reported by Victoria Poller in Examiner.com, April 16, 2013 (links in original):

Because of the array of talent and the desire of the masses, Faith Christian Center’s “Jazz Under the Stars” Spring Jazz Bling will be open to married couples and singles too. The price will remain the same and the good times will roll for all.

So bring your blankets, lawn chairs & picnic baskets filled with good eats and enjoy a night out under the stars while listening to the great smooth-jazz sounds of: Marty Kizer, David & the Groov Band, Akia Uwanda & Jarell Harris in concert.
