GENERAL GALA DONATION

Keynote Address by Evie West

Evie West speaks from experience as a former L.A. gang member and two-
time teen mother who was faced with the decision to terminate her second
unborn son. Through God’s amazing grace, a story of intrigue, tough love,
and miracles, Evie’s life is now a passionate picture of redemption and
abundant life.

Evie’s story comes alive on the pages of her book, “Revolving Choices:
Playing Roulette with Life.” Each chapter brings to life the adventure and
journey of a young, Hispanic girl in a desperate search for identity, but
whose life drastically changed when confronted by the power of Jesus
Christ. Her story is evidence that God can take your mess and make it your
message of love, forgiveness, and restoration.

In 1996, Evie was divinely transplanted to Cleveland, Tennessee where she
enrolled at Lee University. In 2001, she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts
degree in Intercultural Studies and a minor in Bible. Evie now serves her
community as a police officer for the City of Cleveland and works to
promote an environment of peace and safety.

Because she understands how one comes to the decision to abort a child
and what it feels like to give birth and not take her baby home, she speaks
with heartfelt compassion on pro-life issues. 

Start with a light Avocado Mango Jicama Salad with orange vinaigrette, and then enjoy these entree choices!

Pan Roasted Ratatouille served with polenta (vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free), eggplant, red or yellow bell peppers, tomatoes, zucchini, squash, onion, and garlic roasted in olive oil with a splash of balsamic vinegar.

All served with roasted root vegetables – roasted beets, carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, and turnips, tossed with olive oil, fresh rosemary, sage, and thyme, salt and pepper, and a lovely asparagus risotto, artisan bread, and butter!
