Our Second Gala: An Evening of Joy

On May 2, 2025, our school held its second annual gala, "An Evening of Joy," at the Culinary Productions event center in downtown Pensacola.  It was an elegant and festive event, with over two hundred people in attendance.  Highlights included a raffle and silent auction, including an impressive array of sacred art.  Our students performed choral selections led by Mrs. Heather Renshaw, and showcased two different ballroom dance styles, choreographed by instructors Sherri and Larry Bunch.  Headmaster Charlie Johnson and Sophomore Victoria Crooke both gave personal testimonies, and the event was MC'd by Chairman J.P. Falardeau.  After the presentations were concluded, guests got to their feet and danced to the live music played by local band the Panhandle Dusters.  

The event raised over $105,000 in donations and pledges for our school, including a $50,000 matching donation by a most generous anonymous donor.  We are so grateful for this outpouring of support as we head into our third year in our mission of raising up a new generation of leaders and saints for the Kingdom of God.
