Special Prom Ceremony ‘Night to Shine’ held at Parallel Church

It was a Night To Shine at Parallel Church in Lethbridge on Friday Night. A number of young people with disabilities were honoured with a special prom ceremony. Organizers say the event, which began in 2015 by the Tim Tebow Foundation to celebrate those with special needs, brought many smiles to a number of participants. Night To Shine celebrates over 100,000 people at over 600 churches in around 30 countries each and every year.
