Banquet (and Logistics)
What can I do to help with the anniversary banquet?
If you have not yet made your donation (minimum $70) towards this event, the best thing you can do is to respond quickly by doing so. The minimum donation is required to reserve a seat. The success of the event depends on the budget we have. Alot of things could be potentially cut out if there is no fund to support the goals. If you have already made a donation, you may consider donating some more to help. A number of people have helped in this regard.
During the banquet, we are going to need the assistance of members of House of Glory for various services. Some of which include:
- Hostesses
- Masters-of-Ceremony
- Ushers
- Registration desk support
- Protocol, etc
Members will be contacted by the committee.

When is the last day to make donations towards the anniversary banquet?
All donations should be made by July 30. If you are yet to submit your donation (minimum $70), please do so promptly. The minimum donation is required to reserve a seat. This is not to say that seats may not be available, but to make it clear that the committee cannot be held responsible if they are no seats. The date is also important because it gives us enough time to finalize plans/logistics with the facility and invited ministers/guests.
If you have already made the minimum donation to reserve your seat, thank you. However, if you will like to donate more, the donations will be gladly received. Thank you.

When is the last day to invite guest for the anniversary banquet and make donations on their behalf?
All donations should be made by July 30. If you are yet to submit your donation (minimum $70), please do so promptly. The minimum donation is required to reserve a seat. This date is important because any donations made after this does not guarantee reservation of seat. This is not to say that seats will not be available, but to make it clear that the committee cannot be held responsible if they are no seats. The date is also important because it gives us enough time to finalize plans/logistics with the facility and invited ministers/guests.
If you have already made the minimum donation to reserve your seat, thank you. However, if you will like to donate more, the donations will be gladly received. Thank you.

Can anyone come to the event?
Anyone that has made the minimum donation of $70 will have a seat at the banquet. Invited guests (and donors) can only be adults. An adult is 18years and above. Unfortunately, children other than House of Glory children cannot come to the event due to space constraints.

How will I know if I’m invited?
You are invited if you have made the minimum donation. The church is maintaining a list of those that have made their donations and it is on this basis that invitation is verified. If a person happens to show up to event without having made a donation, monies will be collected at the door, and admittance will be subject to available seats. We do not encourage this please.

Anniversary Thanksgiving
What do I need to know concerning the anniversary thanksgiving day?
Takes place on August 5, the first Sunday in August. It’s regularly scheduled thanksgiving Sunday with a twist. The color “Purple” is the dress code/theme, and it should be a fun filled time celebrating and thanking God for his goodness and mercies for the past 10 years.
What is the color to wear for the anniversary thanksgiving?
The anniversary color is “Purple”. Everyone is encouraged to come in with something purple. This includes ties, shirts, blouses, skirts, “iro and buba”, “agbada”, caps, “geles” (or head ties), etc. If you don’t have anything purple you may wear something that closely resembles it. Please note that no articles of clothing will be sold regarding this. The important thing is that you come out to have fun and celebrate!
HOG T-shirt Sunday & Anniversary Cookout
What is the HOG t-shirt that I should wear?

What time is the cookout?

back to top
Where is the cookout going to take place?
In the front of church. All food will be served outside. We ask that people enjoy the cookout by staying outside so that the entire church is not dirtied up. Eating and enjoying the goodies in one place (outside the church) makes it easier for focussed cleaning. Thank you for your cooperation.

Do I need to bring anything for the cookout?
The anniversary committee, is going to provide food and drinks. Food will be burgers, hot dogs, suya, salad, and other typical cookout food. People and/or groups within the church are welcome (but not required) to bring additional food/drink items as well. Committee will not be providing “hard” food (e.g rice, etc). If you will be bringing food items, please notify the committee so we can keep track of things.
