“Attending every year“
“The older adults who I invited look forward to the opportunity of dressing up, dancing, eating a delicious catered meal, and connecting with the health and wellness vendors to receive valuable health information and free giveaways and opportunities to win exciting raffle items. They also look forward to attending every
year.”
Kathleen Gambrell – Line Dance Instructor

“I’m gonna have a good time”
“Hey… I’m gonna have a good time. We’re gonna have the ball… and I’m gonna have a good time. You should be there to see me. I’d be so glad to see them (guests). I missed everybody and everybody is just so sweet to me. And I like to go around to the people. I go around to everybody’s table and and laugh and talk with them and and do a little dance with them and hey, you should see me.”

What Our Lord and Belle of the Harvest Says
Joseph Craddock
Lord of the Harvest
Minister Joseph Craddock faced a terrible challenge with being scammed out of his money. With no one else to turn to, here is how CEFN’s director, Sherry Hill, helped Mr. Craddock and how he felt about his latest trial:
“…Ms. Sherry, you know all along she was counseling me and working with me and telling me that we’re gonna… get through this and you’re gonna get it back and she was very encouraging you know and that at the end of everything you know quite naturally… being a spiritual person, I was grateful to God and to her… you know that they were… faithful to the… help that they were giving me…” – Joseph Craddock
Haddy Williams
Belle of the Ball
Ms. Haddy Williams confronted many terrible challenges throughout her life. But her belief in God allows her to keep smiling and move forward no matter what. Here is what she says of CEFN’s director Sherry Hill:
“Oh yes, she’s (Sherry Hill) so sweet… if I need help… she would see what she can do for me. Anytime I need… to call her, I’ll call the people that work with her and they will be there for me. I know that she is… very concerned… about people. She is very sweet.” – Haddy Williams
