Appreciation Luncheon

A couple weeks ago Metro Youth hosted a 55 and up appreciation luncheon in the chapel. This was the second one that Metro Youth hosted and what a success it was. Approximately 42 guest attended, 20 youth and lots of parent participation. The youth were so excited to serve these folks in our church and be able to express their appreciation for their commitment to the local church. And though Erika is out of Metro Youth, it was an opportunity for Erika and I to serve these people who we dearly love. The youth spent time with the guests and served their lunch, drinks and dessert. I was amazed at how the youth were interacting. Jesse Phillips was there and MC the event. He did an outstanding job and appreciate his dedication to the youth of the church. We also put together a couple games: Name that Tune and Name that Celebrity. It was so much fun and the guest did a great job recalling those tunes and celebrities of the 40's, 50's and 60's! There were also a few give-aways. In addition, Erika was able to honor Judy Jones and Zachary honored Jay Schmatjen. They were both so surprised! I'm thrilled Erika and I were able to be a part of this wonderful day. These people have invested so much into Metro Life Church. Their commitment to God and the local church is a direct reflection of their Love for the Savior. They are extremely appreciated! A big thanks to the youth and parents!

These pictures are great, Tammy! I wondered how the lunch went - your post answered all my questions. We are blessed to have so many precious people in our lives who have gone before us leading the way.
