We are still talking about what God did during our first ever Sportsman's Banquet at North Monroe!
God did more than we could ask or imagine, and we are beyond excited about the opportunities to spread the Name and the Love of Jesus that are possible now because of our church and community. It's taken us a little while to calculate receipts and expenses, but we are excited to announce that we raised $188,815.65 for international missions! Amazing!! We would like to thank Josh & Elizabeth Miller, Joey Young, Wendy Driedger and the entire Sportsman's Banquet team for working so hard on this event. Stay tuned because it will be back in 2023! Thank you for supporting and helping to spread the Gospel to the nations! We love you, Church.
