TIDAL CREEK IS HOSTING OUR Fourth ANNUAL EVENING OF HOPE BAREFOOT GALA ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 21 at 5-8 PM.

This event will feature a catered meal, a silent/live auction, guest speakers, and more. Our church, in partnership with Samaritan's Feet, has the opportunity to bless our community by providing a new pair of shoes for every student at a local elementary school later this year, and ALL proceeds from the Barefoot Gala will go toward this cause.

Dress code is "Western" (encouraged but not required); shoes are optional, and there will be a "shoe check" at the event. Tickets are $30, and there is limited childcare for ages 5 and under for free (must reserve when you buy your tickets).

Tickets are SOLD OUT. Join the waitlist to secure your spot if additional tickets become available. Last year, many people on the waitlist were able to attend, so we anticipate that again this year. The sooner you sign up, the better your chance is, so sign up for the waitlist today!
