Some Highlights from Jazz and Jambalaya

Let the Good Times Roll!

Our Jazz and Jambalaya Dinner was a huge success!!! People of all ages pitched in to help us out in our efforts to raise money to attend the National Youth Gathering this summer in New Orleans. (For more info, check out the link to the right!) Because of the generosity of our friends, family, and church family, over $5,000 was donated to the cause! WOW! What a bunch of hard workers! Brooke acted as our talented and charming MC. Allie, Conner, and Dustin were our Raffle Crew, Savannah and Leslie shared their reasons for wanting to go, Anthony offered an opening prayer, Eric and Brian worked behind the scenes as head waiters, David cooked up a storm, Sean and his dad Mike made an AMAZING video- everyone did a great job! Rich was a great auctioneer, Myron and Cal got our toes tapping to some Nawlins style music! And let's not forget our amazing kitchen crew!!!

I will try to get our video posted online so that you can watch it again too!
