“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”  — Galatians 6:9

For many of us, 2024 has been a challenging year. The busyness and complexity of life can often weigh heavy on our shoulders. On November 7, 2024, be encouraged and refreshed through delicious food, fellowship, and inspiring stories of the significant impact the Pro-life movement is making! We have a fantastic program waiting for you that will inspire you to keep going in your personal walk with Jesus and encourage you to continue to do good and not give up because we know the harvest will be plentiful. Please consider joining us for this year’s Circle of Care fundraising Banquet with the theme “Persevere & Do Good!”
This evening offers the opportunity to hear from clients whose lives have been changed for the better through We Care and an exciting 2024 Ministry Update. This update will provide a glimpse into the future and the powerful impact of what our ministry’s support can do to serve others! You’ll also have the chance to fellowship with others who have a shared vision for women, men, and their families. We have decided to bring back our raffle baskets for this evening as well! One raffle ticket will be included with your reservation, and additional tickets will be available for purchase.

2024 KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Our keynote speaker this year is local pastor, Gary Roca. Serving as both Senior Pastor of CrossWind Community Church in Genoa, IL, and as the Alderman for the 4th Ward of the city of Genoa, Gary is actively demonstrating the theme of our banquet this year, “Persevere and Do Good!”.

His inspiring personal story will encourage you in your own walk with Jesus and demonstrate the significant impact your support makes in the pro-life movement. Gary’s testimony illustrates how small acts of love and evangelism can reach far and wide, changing many lives through the love of Jesus in a lost world, searching for a Savior.

The funds raised from our event goes toward funding our clinic and our community programs. The donations from this event fuel the mission of We Care Pregnancy Clinic. It takes nearly $1,200 to empower one mom or dad to choose life for her child. Your gift will ensure our services remain free of charge to our clients.

Your presence at our event is priceless, but we understand that schedules can often be hectic. If you are unable to attend this year’s banquet, but still want to contribute to our fundraising, we want to make that easy for you.
