The theme for Escape Ministries Annual Banquet this year is Flourish in Faith. The theme is based off Psalm 92:12-13 which says, “The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the Lord, they will flourish in the courts of our God.”

These verses paint a striking picture of strength, stability, and growth that comes from being anchored in one’s faith. Being deeply rooted leads to thriving, regardless of life’s challenges. For many of us and for many of our students at Escape Ministries, we see challenges everywhere—personal struggles, health issues, and sometimes, even a feeling of disconnection from God. Yet, these verses give us hope because in God’s house, there is belonging and a flourishing that no challenge can steal.

Trees that are planted in rich soil grow tall and sturdy, producing fruit and providing shelter. Similarly, we can expect to see wonderful results in the lives of those we serve as we nurture them in their faith. We invite you to partner with us as we continue this journey. Together, let us sow into a future where our youth grow strong — like the cedar in Lebanon —grounded in purpose and hope. Register below!
