Keynote Speaker — Matt Hammitt
Matt Hammitt is a three-time Dove Award recipient, two-time Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, author, and speaker, best known as the lead vocalist of the Christian band Sanctus Real from 1996–2016. In addition to his work as a recording artist, Matt is a respected songwriter, working with influential Christian and worship artists, including For King & Country, Cody Carnes, Francesca Battistelli, Terrian, and Bethel Music.

2026 Banquet Opportunities
There are several opportunities to get involved with this year’s banquet!
Event Sponsor
Event Sponsors, like Underwriters, contribute in advance to cover event expenses and help us reach our fundraising goal. This enables all of the donations and pledges given the night of the celebration to go directly towards the operating expenses of this ministry over the next year. Event Sponsors will have a reserved table of 8 seats for you and your guests, and be listed as sponsors during the evening. Responses must be received via mail or email no later than August 14th to be included in the program.
Host
Do you have a passion for hosting and building connections with people? Hosts serve the vital role of introducing people to the Pregnancy Resource Center by inviting them to attend the banquet as guests and filling a table of 8 seats. Many people are introduced to the ministry through these invitations.
