Super Saturday (10/13/22) from a guest at our event for special needs: We had a BLAST and can’t wait for the next one. It was truly amazing to see the love, effort, support, and community that was on display last night. I am humbled and awed by all of the work and am grateful to be involved. The dancers brought me to tears and the smiles in the room were absolutely incredible. God is so good. It was the best night I’ve had in awhile and we look forward to being a part of Super Saturday each month.
