Holland Home Annual Keeping the Promise Dinner
2026 Keeping the Promise Dinner
Candy Cane Lane is the theme of Holland Home’s Keeping the Promise Dinner.
Beyond its sweetness, the candy cane has also come to symbolize elements of our faith. Its shape forms a “J” for Jesus, our Savior. The red stripes remind us of the blood He shed for us, and the white represents how our sins are washed away through His sacrifice on the cross.
We invite you to join us on Monday, December 14, 2026 at DeVos Place. This special evening of holiday celebration will feature acclaimed songwriter, recording artist, and worship leader Jon Reddick.
Proceeds benefit the Holland Home Resident Assistance Fund.
For questions, please contact Marcia Timmerman at 616-235-5118 or marcia.timmerman@hollandhome.org
