GENEVA — The Family Hope Center has announced the resounding success of its 2025 Banquet, held on Oct. 17 at Club 86 in Geneva. The event gathered supporters from more than a dozen local churches for an inspiring evening of fellowship, motivation, and heartfelt generosity.
Attendees enjoyed a sumptuous dinner catered by Club 86, which set the perfect tone for a meaningful program. Through the kindness of donors and a dynamic silent auction, the event raised over $10,000.
The evening’s highlight was a spirited live auction, conducted by Pastor Jamison Deacons of Lake Country Christian Church and his father, Jim Deacons. Their charismatic approach elicited smiles, laughter, and nearly $1,500 in additional funds for the Center’s vital mission.
“We deeply appreciate you joining our mission to provide compassionate support, education, and hope to women and men facing pregnancy decisions in a loving, confidential environment,” said Jennifer Grace, executive director of the Family Hope Center. “By being here with us this evening, you help empower families to make life-affirming choices while proclaiming the Hope of Christ and the truth that every life is created in God’s image at conception. Your support fosters a community valuing respect for all stages of life, Biblical marriage, sexual integrity, and a relationship with God.”
The Family Hope Center encourages the community to build on this success by attending its Community Open House to kick off the holiday season on Friday, Nov. 14 from 2-6 p.m. at 551 Exchange St., Geneva. Guests will enjoy refreshments, fellowship, and an informative tour of the Center’s programs.
The Family Hope Center offers confidential, compassionate guidance to individuals and families navigating pregnancy decisions, emphasizing life-affirming options, Biblical values, sexual integrity, and spiritual growth.
