LYV Gala Night Review

The LYV held its inaugural Gala in August. Being the first time we have run this event, we were delighted with the success. The event was to raise awareness of what the LYV does and raise some funds to support youth ministry. Janelle who works at Light FM was our guest speaker. She spoke warmly about how LYV had a positive impact on her life and helped her grow. We also heard from Ross Smith, CEO LLL on the work they do and how they are able to assist youth ministry. We are grateful for all the support they give LYV.

Our different camps and events coordinators presented on what is happening in the LYV. The night was filled with great decorations, delicious food, great company and lots of fun. A raffle ensured that extra funds were raised and lots of prizes were on offer. Many commented how much they enjoyed catching up with old friends and reminiscing about fun times in the LYV. The Gala looks to be a permanent feature on the LYV calendar. We thank LLL for their continued support and also attending the Gala. The money raised will go to assisting campers who may be struggling financially to be able to attend camps.
