✨ A Beautiful Celebration of Culture! ✨

One of the most special parts of the evening was seeing the richness of cultures represented in such meaningful ways. I lost count of how many were represented: Ukraine, Congo, Nigeria, Phillipines, Scotland, Direct lineage Pilgrims, Canadian, Guatemala, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Hondura,Egypt(mission), Israel, Lebanon, Japan, China, German, and the list goes on and on!

This beautiful Nigerian attire featured the elegant Gele headwrap and Fila, traditional garments that represent dignity, pride, and cultural identity in Nigerian celebrations.

Demitri wore a traditional Filipino Barong, a formal embroidered shirt traditionally made from piña fabric woven from pineapple leaves, symbolizing Filipino heritage and celebration.

Moments like this remind us how powerful it is when people from different traditions come together — each bringing the beauty of their heritage to share with the community. 🌍✨

A wonderful memory from Deb Torgenson: " Camille. I loved the GALA. From the music to the speakers to the presentations. Each had a special place and above all Glorified God. You and your board did such a spectacular job. Beautiful location. My girls had their proms there so I knew it was nice but had never been. "
