Keynote Speaker — Matt Hammitt
Matt Hammitt is a singer, songwriter, author, and speaker. Matt was the lead singer for the band Sanctus Real from 1996-2016. He has been the recipient of three Dove Awards and has been nominated for two Grammy Awards, for his work with SanctusReal. Matt has written over fifteen chart topping songs, performed by Sanctus Real and other musical artists. An Ohio native, Matt now lives in Nashville with his wife, Sarah, and their four children. Passion for family is what led him to step away from Sanctus Real in 2016, to spend more time at home. Matt details this difficult transition in his book Lead Me: Finding Courage to Fight for Your Marriage, Children, and Faith. Matt holds nothing back in this unfiltered story of his life, so far. In 2022, the Hammitts released a documentary called Bowen’s Heart. This feature length documentary film follows (then) eight-year-old Bowen Hammitt through his third major open heart surgery, his family caught in the tension between hoping the surgery would make his life better and knowing it could make things much worse.
2024 Banquet Opportunities
There are several opportunities to get involved with this year’s banquet!
Sponsor a Table
Table 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. To show our appreciation, Table Sponsors will receive an invitation to a VIP event before the celebration, a premium table with 10 seats reserved for you and your guests, and be listed as sponsors during the evening. Responses must be received via mail or email no later than September 5th to be included in the program.
Host a Table
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 10 seats. Many people are introduced to the ministry through these invitations.
