God's Blessings for All Generations

The Gethsemane Baptist Church of Washington, DC Centennial Banquet,
Hyatt Regency Bethesda – Ballroom, One Bethesda Metro Center, Bethesda, Maryland 20814

The Centennial Banquet Committee and First Lady Drummer invite you to join us on this occasion beginning promptly at 6:00pm. As this is not a fundraising activity, instead of selling banquet tickets, Centennial Banquet Subscriptions (brown labeled payment envelops) are now available through your Tribal Leadership. The subscription cost for adults is $100.00 and $60.00 for children 12 and under. A subscription entitles you to a reserved seat at the banquet and a special Centennial Souvenir Book that will be distributed in December 2012. It is important that all subscriptions be purchased before June 30, 2012
