We unfortunately have made the heavy decision to cancel the Prom until further notice. This letter is mainly to let you know about the cancellation and send an encouragement to you dads. 

 

As the sponsor of the Prom for many years, Del Rey Church was prayerful and thoughtful in making this decision. We understand that this may be disappointing for many of you to hear, as it was disappointing for us to come to this conclusion. Our daughters were sad when we told them, so this is personal to us as it is to you. That said, be encouraged dads! We hope you dads will pull together in small groups and do something to make your daughters and young girls without dads in your life feel special and prized.

 

We deeply desire to see the relationships between dads and their daughters strengthened through this event and are bummed to have had to make this decision.

 

We know that in the past, many of you have looked forward to this event all year because of what a special memory it creates for dads and daughters. The thought of missing that special time together may be emotional for you. But the good news is you don’t have to miss out on that special time. As dads, we can pull together to bless the young girls of our community. Feel free to email us encouraging notes or pictures of things you do, so we can encourage other dads and daughters.
