The Valentine Dinner, sponsored by the youth as a fundraiser, turned out to be a fabulous evening, enjoyed by all who attended. The 4 course dinner, complete with appetizer and dessert, was spectacular and received rave reviews.
Simple, yet elegant tables were adorned with single roses, candles and chocolates, while festive ice breaker game sheets kept early arrivals entertained.
There was something for everyone, even our four-footed friends, on the auction table, where six donated baskets were silently auctioned off to the highest bidder.
And last, but certainly not least, Rob Riverbanks made a guest appearance as the emcee for the "Honey I Can't Remember Your Name" game where four married couples competed for a prize in a hilarious rendition of the "The Newlywed Game."
It was truly an uplifting evening for all who bought tickets. The service was impeccable, the food incredible, and the fellowship was glorifying to our Lord and Savior.
Thanks to Dan, Lisa, Melinda, Carolann and the youth for participating in and providing a most memorable evening.
