2008 Sweetheart Banquet--UNFORGETTABLE!

Here are some of the participants in the 2008 Sweetheart Banquet. Below is an email that I received after the event:

Jon,
Pass our thanks on to the teens for a great Sweetheart Banquet. During our time here at the apartment complex, we met a husband and wife who were very affluent. In fact, the wife gets flown around on [a local company's] corporate jet from time to time. They have since moved out of the apartment complex, and, because their world is so different from ours, we have found it difficult to find ways to keep connected with them in order to share the Gospel. But the Sweetheart Banquet was a perfect opportunity. So, they came as our guests tonight and had a great time. They were impressed by the teens' appearance of having a special bond with one another, and they enjoyed your message. And afterwards, we were able to drink coffee with them and share the way of salvation in very clear terms. In short, the Sweetheart Banquet was a wonderful couple of hours of entertainment, and a perfect tool for our personal evangelism. Praise God! Thanks again.
