EVENT REPORT
Sometimes you just have to get down and PARTY! About 400 came out to help us celebrate 15 years. (And with fajitas and tres leches on the menu, how could they resist?) If you couldn't come, here's a synopsis:

• We celebrated our "coming of age" as a church, and you could feel big LOVE all through the event.
• Thanks to Pastor John and Gladys Greiner for 15 great years of service.
  
• Recording artists and GWC long-timers Stephanie Hogan and Nick Odizor performed for the first time the original song "Believe." The acoustic rendition brought the house down. (Or should we say UP?) They began writing it after a Sunday morning message by Pastor Greiner several weeks ago. We'll  be hearing more of that song to come! Amazing.
  
• A huge and talented team of Christian mariachis had the crowd hopping, including Gladys and Youth Director Adam in an all-out jig.
• Gorgeous decorations transported us to an elegant dreamland, south of the border. Thanks, Anne Crawford and army of volunteers.
• Claire had a memorable fight with the law of gravity while giving answers to the GWC Trivia quiz. Gravity won, but she's fine, thanks. Congratulations to quiz winners Carol Koonts and Sheila Sutton.
  
• Thanks to Gringo's Tex Mex Kitchen for other-worldly food and to Shirley Brown and volunteers for drinks and cake service!
• Thanks to Sylvia Garay and GWKids team for providing BIG fun for kids. The special black-light party room for kids was a hit, while the little kids got a visit from Carlito horse. Fun!
• We laughed and cried through a video montage. It included special prophetic words spoken over GWC throughout the years, including one from the late Pastor John Osteen. The sound of his voice still comforts and inspires us. Thanks to Jay Greiner, Tim Godwin, Lee Auvert and Dan Rubottom for tireless work.
• Some of us boldly dressed for the occasion, most notably the Wilkerson and Batalla families who donned authentic quinceanera dresses from times past. (Michele- from a time WAY past!)  So fun!
  
• From the church staff: Thanks to the church body of Glorious Way Church whose love and faithfulness motivate us every day. We love you!
• THANK YOU JESUS for letting us represent your Name alongside these awesome people. Great days ahead!
