Hello Great Banquet Family!
Hello Great Banquet Family,
De Colores! Preparations for the fall season are in full swing! There are plenty of ways to serve—please sign up on the prayer vigil charts for each weekend and come volunteer on the weekends! As we continue toward the coming weekends, I ask that you keep every team member in your prayers, and especially the guests that He has chosen to attend! Weekend dates can be found on the Upcoming Weekends link. Your prayers are greatly appreciated. Looking forward to serving with you soon!
