Dinner with Kiddos During ETS
Tuesday, November 18th, 2025
5:00 -7:00 pm
SBTS Campus (specific location to come)
Many of our husbands will be headed to Boston for ETS so let’s enjoy dinner together during this unique week. Bring your own dinner and bring your kids. This is nothing fancy – so sandwiches, take-out, or pulling together left-overs is great! Even if your husband isn’t going to ETS, we hope you’ll come too!
