Fall Friendship Dinner September 10, 6-8:30pm Crosswalk Conference Center
Fall Friendship Dinner is our highlight event of the year, and we are planning for 1,250 women! This is a great opportunity for you to connect with other women and also invite women from your community to come. You will enjoy a delicious dinner (served by our Deacons, staff guys, and connect group men), and an inspiring message! Dinner will be fresh boneless chicken breast lightly seasoned and grilled, topped with a creamy lemon caper sauce, served with sides and salad, finished with assorted cheesecake.
Our tables are decorated with items to bless local ministries. We hope you will join in and get creative with your “gifts”.
Tickets cost $20 and will go up to $25 after August 30.

Rebecca Carrell
This year our Fall Friendship Dinner speaker is Rebecca Carrell. Here is a little more about her:
By order of importance, I call myself a joyful Jesus-follower, wife to Mike, mom to two teenagers (gulp), lover of coffee, and friend to many. You also might say I’m a radio dinosaur, having worked on-air in the Dallas/Fort Worth area since 1998—in talk radio, country music, and Christian.
90.9 KCBI was my most recent radio home. I stepped down in October of 2021 to take a position at Dallas Theological Seminary. Now I get to pour into the next generation of leaders, and I love cheering students on.

Local Mission Partners
This year we have partnered with 5 local mission organizations! Each mission partner has sent a list of their most needed items. Each table host chooses a mission partner for their table, then the host and women at that table decorate the table with items for their mission partner.
