2025 Celebration Banquet Round-Up

What a night! On Saturday, May 17, we gathered at Embassy Suites LAX South for an unforgettable evening of reflection, gratitude, and joyful anticipation at the CFWLA Celebration Banquet. Together, we honored God’s faithfulness over the past eight years and looked ahead to a new chapter in the life of our organization.

The evening was filled with warm connections, moving stories, and meaningful moments—from commissioning our newest Framework Fellows cohort to joyfully announcing Robert Covolo as CFWLA’s new Executive Director. It was a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come and how much more lies ahead.

We're profoundly grateful for this impactful evening. We give a hearty thank you to Steve and Margaret Lindsey, whose faithful service over 8 years to CFWLA has made this night possible. We also would like to thank our dedicated volunteers, board members, staff, and every guest who joined us to celebrate—a special thanks to those who gave generously toward our mission. Your gifts are already helping fuel the work of shaping a gospel-centered vision of vocation across Los Angeles.

We are deeply encouraged and excited for what’s to come. Scroll down for highlights from the evening—and click any photo to explore the full gallery.
