Our Paint the Church Pink 2026 Breast Cancer Awareness celebration was a wonderful success! 💗

On Sunday, October 18, we joined together with Prayer Tabernacle Church of Faith to raise awareness, share encouragement, and remind everyone of the importance of standing together in the fight against breast cancer.

From the uplifting worship service to the delicious food, beautiful decorations, and smiling faces, the day was filled with love, laughter, and meaningful connections.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Pastor Bryson and the Prayer Tabernacle church family, our ambassadors, vendors, supporters, and everyone who attended and helped make this event possible. Your generosity and commitment to our community mean so much!

Enjoy these special moments from our celebration! The full events gallery can be found on our website.

Together we wear pink. Together we pray. Together we fight. Together we WIN!

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped celebrate the strength and resilience of cancer survivors. 💜
