At this year’s banquet, we have the privilege of hearing lots of stories of New Wine’s catalytic influence in individual lives and collective communities. Keynote speaker, Suzie Slonaker, is a long-time friend of New Wine. She is the founder of REACH Ministries and her life has been characterized by a profoundly compassionate embrace. In Suzie’s presence, it’s hard not to invoke thoughts of Mother Teresa. Suzie cares deeply and passionately for the most broken and discarded members of our society. Her legacy with REACH Ministries is incarnational theology at its best – God has manifested his transformative love through Suzie’s strong advocacy and tender care for children and families suffering under the oppression of HIV/AIDS. We have much to learn from Suzie’s heart. Join us on Friday, November 12 from 6 – 9pm to be inspired by how New Wine has shaped her work.
An RSVP is required by Monday, November 8. For more details, please email newwine@multnomah.edu.
I’m so anxious to hear a podcast of the New Wine benefit from Friday evening. Will this soon be posted?
