lunch included

Lunch on Monday and Tuesday is included in your registration. You’ll need to wear your badge to be admitted to the lunch room adjacent to the Resource Hall. Your meal has been especially prepared by the chef for Adventist Pastors Families. In the fall of 2021, the ministerial planning team sat down with the chef and his team as he showed off what he could do for this unique group. He and his wife got rave reviews as they sampled the menu for the Monday and Tuesday lunch.
