Celebrating Life Dinner
After prayerful thought and conversation, a Celebrating Life Dinner will be held instead of our annual Celebrating Life Luncheon. On October 28 at Marie Gabrielle Restaurant and Gardens, the dinner will honor our 2020 Honorary Chairs, Host Committee and Beneficiaries. We welcome speaker, Benjamin Watson– NFL Super Bowl Champion, Pro-Life Advocate and Father of seven. Because of the faithful generosity of our Advocates for Life, we will be able to fully fund our 19 life-affirming beneficiaries.
At the age of 39, Benjamin Watson has accomplished the American Dream: He played 16 seasons in the NFL, was a team member on the New England Patriots and scored a championship ring in Super Bowl XXXIX. As a standout athlete in college, Benjamin excelled on the football field for both Duke University and the University of Georgia. It was no surprise that he was a first-round NFL draft selection. The New England Patriots knew he was a special talent and selected him as the 32nd overall pick. Benjamin has been a powerhouse in the NFL ever since. He has played for the Patriots, the Cleveland Browns, the Baltimore Ravens and the New Orleans Saints. Known for his speed and astounding athletic ability, Watson is widely recognized for what is considered “the most amazing play of the entire 2005-2006 NFL season” – a remarkable run to deny a touchdown in a critical playoff game.
