Supper prices are $9 for adults, $7 for youth (ages 5-12) and kids 4 and younger eat free. Tammy Wakevainen, spokesperson for the church stated that the event was a great success last year, and they are hoping that this year will be even better. In addition to delicious food and great music, there will be a choice raffle (see photos below.)

An integral part of Bethel Church's mission statement is to reach beyond their church walls and impact and enrich communities both near and far. This event is a fundraiser to support their local and national mission projects. A few of their local mission projects include preparing and serving dinner at Alpha House - a family homeless shelter in Ann Arbor - on a regular schedule, "Hearts and Hands" - providing health and wellness education as well as spiritual comfort to elderly, and sewing and quilting "comfort quilts" for children at Motts Children Hospital, patients at the U of M Cancer Center and Veterans Hospital in Ann Arbor, and church and community members who could use care and comfort. Visit their website for  a more complete list.
