A Gathering of Angels presented by Ford Motor Company was held on Monday, October 26th. Guest speakers included Darell Waltrip, his wife Stevie and Rudy Kalis, WSMV Ch 4 Sports Director. The onstage live interview with the Waltrips' provided attendees insight into the race car driver's spiritual life and how God has been the driving force through much of his career. Waltrip's testimonial inpired many to give back this holiday season.
The Anne Ragsdale Angel Emeritus Award was presented to Helen M. (Honey) Rodgers by 2008 recipient Helen Cummings, Dick Ragsdale and Salvation Army Angel Tree founder Lt. Col. Charles White.
The Nashville Choir (pictured above with the Waltrips) provided an array of joyful holiday songs throughout the event.
