Spaghetti, Sweet Tea, and Scripture: Christ-Followers’ Youth Group Hosts 4th Annual Fundraiser Dinner

Published

on

The Christ-Followers’ Youth Group of Bentonville Baptist Church is cooking up something special, and the whole community is invited to join.

On Saturday, February 28, from 4–6 p.m., the group will host its 4th Annual Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser at the church, located just across from the Bentonville Post Office. The suggested donation is $10 for adults and $5 for kids under 10, with both dine-in and carry-out options available.

This year’s youth group includes six enthusiastic members:

  • Brookelyn Jeffries
  • Shyann Siers
  • Abigail Guiliani
  • Dalton Siers
  • Brooklynn Mathews
  • Jeremiah Mathews

From cooking and serving to greeting guests and cleaning up, each member of the Christ-Followers’ Youth Group is pitching in to make the dinner a success. The goal? Raising funds for upcoming camps, outings, and fellowship opportunities.

“This is something our youth does every year,” said Abigail Guiliani, a ninth-grader. “It helps us do fun things together and gives us a chance to grow in our faith.”

The menu includes generous plates of spaghetti served with salad, brownies, and—new this year—cheesecake. Beverages include sweet tea, unsweetened tea, and water.

And if you’re wondering, yes—the youth group unanimously prefers their tea sweet.

Although the Bentonville Baptist youth group is small, their dedication is big. “We’re a tight group,” Abigail said. “We study the Bible, raise money for events, and just enjoy being together.”

So whether you’re looking for a warm meal, a night off from cooking, or a way to support local youth grounded in faith, this dinner is a meaningful—and delicious—opportunity.

Come hungry, leave full—and support a group of youth making a difference in their church and community.
